Story

Lily is an incredibly nice, friendly cat. She is getting on in age and just lost her brother. She pretty much just wants to sit around all day, and we are looking for a home where someone would be with her more than we can be. She likes to be pet and purrs appreciatively . Other than that, she is very easy- not needy, not destructive.

Spayed or Neutered,

Story

Ermintrude is our longest resident. She came to Nine Lives in August 2024 from Ohlone Humane Society. When she arrived, she was startled by loud noises, sudden movements, and the bustling environment of shelter life. To give Ermintrude the best chance at flourishing, we placed her with one of our amazing foster caregivers. Slowly, Ermintrude began to discover the joys of head scratches, playing with her favorite toys, and lounging on her cat tree. While she still has moments of skittishness, Ermintrude has transformed into a “Velcro lap cat," seeking out pets and attention on her own terms.
