Take a deep breath, press play, and let two brave rescue cats bring a moment of peace to your day. 💖

Noctua and Sadiya have been in my care as foster cats for three years, and what you’ll see in this video is nothing short of a miracle. Once semi-feral, starving, and near death, they’ve transformed into affectionate companions who purr through every moment of Brushing Time.

🖤 Sadiya, the sleek black daughter, can’t wait—she rushes to her favorite Coolaroo bed and assumes her diva position for the brush.

🤎 Noctua, her tortie mom, treads her back paws with excitement as she waits her turn, then steps forward for gentle strokes and even a curious sniff of the camera (a first!). Her soft purrs are a soundtrack of trust hard-earned.

Their story is one of resilience and healing:
Noctua was a completely unsocialized tortie trapped outdoors and later found in a hoarding situation. Before being rescued, daughter Sadiya survived five weeks without food, while Noctua endured six weeks before finally being trapped—a true miracle. When they were brought to me to foster, both hid in fear. Through good food, time, love, play, Reiki, and animal communication, their walls slowly came down.

Three years later, they run to greet me for morning Brushing Time, meals, treats, and evening Reiki. Watching them seek touch, affection, and connection fills my heart with awe.

Now, they’re ready for their forever home.
They are a bonded pair looking for a calm, loving adopter in or near Seattle, WA (or someone willing to travel). Their adoption fee has been partially sponsored.
