My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Spoiled bottle baby who is confident he is a human child. 10/10 adorable.

Cricket is a very affectionate "kid" who loves his foster siblings (cats & dog). He came to 9 Lives when he was about an hour old. He has been with his foster mom ever since. He is CONVINCED he is a human so if you're looking for the perfect little spoon (literally - under the blankets & everything) who likes to be held & doted on then Cricket is your guy!!! He is without a doubt a mama's boy. 

Cricket does have a medical need that with proper diet, monitoring, & medication, can be efficiently managed long term. It's very straightforward, when he gets stressed & "flares", he gets a daily medication until things settle back down again in his little kitty world. He was tube fed as a baby (among other things) so he comes when called & happily takes his medication from a syringe. He would do best with another kitty/puppy sibling as well as a "mom" who is looking for a new shadow!

Their adoption process

Additional adoption info

Our 9LCR cats are not routinely tested for FIV and FeLV for various reasons, one being to keep the costs and hence the adoption fee affordable. This decision is based on studies that have found that only about 4% of cats are actually infected. The funds for testing are better utilized for our spay and neuter efforts of owned and community cats in order to save the most cats. However, testing can be performed upon request and need to be covered by the person interested in adopting.
9 Lives Cats have been spayed or neutered and have updated vaccinations. 9 Lives is run entirely on volunteers. Please give us 2-7 days to process your application. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to us! Please fill out our application form found here: t.ly/38VV
Adoption fee is $70.00.

More about this rescue

We started 9 Lives Cat Rescue to find homes for cats that are homeless or need to be relocated.
We are a no-kill, non-profit group. Our cats live in foster homes until they are adopted. We spay & neuter every cat before they are adopted.
We fully support our local no-kill feral cat group who practices TNR (Trap, Neuter & Return).
