My story

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

Gigi is a timid but endearing cat with a soft heart and a lot of potential. Found as a stray kitten at a local car repair shop, she has grown up learning to be cautious of her surroundings. While she remains skittish and wary of close interactions, she will allow gentle pets—just twice—before darting away to her safe spot. Despite her nervous nature, Gigi is a curious and sweet soul whose heart can be won over with patience and, of course, her favorite treats.  

She’s looking for a quiet, understanding home with an adopter who has the patience and experience to help her build confidence at her own pace. A calm environment without small children or too much noise will allow Gigi to feel safe and gradually trust her human companions.  

Though shy at first, Gigi’s potential to bond with her adopter is undeniable. With time, care, and lots of tasty snacks, she can blossom into a loving and more confident companion. If you have a big heart and the dedication to help a cautious kitty thrive, Gigi will reward you with her quiet presence and trust.

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).
