Marmite The Cat, Rescue Cat Award Winner 2010

Marmite is Truely an Amazing Cat, helping Lindsay Davies through here difficult pregnancy and thorught the early stages of labout. Marmite was crowned

Most Incredible Story and Rescue Cat of the Year 2010, in recognition of his lion-hearted efforts.

 

 The makers of the yeast extract presented the magnificent moggy and his owners Lindsey and Huw Davies, 21, and 25, from Portsmouth, with a bespoke luxurious Marmite branded cat basket, Marmite ceramic drinking bowl and a life time supply of the yeasty stuff. They also donated £1,000 to Cats Protection, who organise the awards.

When Lindsey Davies suddenly went into labour alone, she was terrified until Marmite stepped in as an emergency midwife and didn’t leave her side for two hours as she waited for her partner to arrive home and helped keep the mum-to-be calm and relaxed. Marmite was also a constant support to Lindsey who suffered painful conditions of pre-eclampsia and anaemia during a difficult pregnancy. He was thrilled when baby Ruby arrived safe and well, and is just as protective of the new arrival.

Lindsey Davies, Marmite’s owner commented: “Marmite followed me around everywhere during my pregnancy and stayed by my side like a birthing partner. He wouldn’t leave me and kept cuddling me when he knew I was in more pain. My husband and I both love Marmite, which is why we named him that in the first place!”

Tom Denyard, marketing manager added: “it was terrific to hear how Marmite had supported his owner and felt only right to mark his efforts with a little something special. We hope he enjoys his new one-of-its-kind Marmite throne and bowl.”

As you can see Marmites Cat Bed is Truely one of a kind!
