Imagine a world where kindness meets necessity, where a young family finds a profound purpose amidst global chaos.

This is the story of Roza, a woman from Sweden, and her baby Noah, who unexpectedly made the UAE their home during the 2020 pandemic lockdown.

Initially visiting her husband, Roza was caught in the whirlwind of a global shutdown that led her to a unique calling—rescuing cats.

Roza, finding herself stranded far from home, noticed a lack of local cat rescue organizations.

She saw this gap not as a barrier but as a call to action.

With a big heart and open arms, she began employing Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) methods to manage the feral cat population effectively.

This method, vital for controlling the proliferation of stray cats, was just the beginning of her journey.

Her efforts soon expanded beyond just TNR as she encountered numerous orphaned kittens needing care.

Roza’s mission evolved as she began taking in neonatal and particularly vulnerable cats.

These fragile creatures required more than just medical attention; they needed a temporary home filled with warmth and love, a sanctuary Roza was determined to provide.

Since the pandemic began, Roza has rescued over 200 cats and kittens.

This remarkable achievement isn’t just a number; it represents hundreds of lives touched and saved.

Her dedication to the well-being of these animals showcases her deep compassion and commitment to the cause.

Central to this touching story is the interaction between Noah and the many kittens that Roza brings home.

These interactions aren’t just adorable; they’re educational and beneficial for both Noah and the kittens.

Roza believes firmly in the advantages of early animal interactions, which help foster a sense of empathy and responsibility in young children.
