Story
Meet Shmisty, our longest-tenured resident at Nine Lives. This stunning two-year-old tabby came to us from the Stockton Animal Shelter in late March. Shmisty is a vibrant and affectionate kitty who loves curling up on your lap and receiving pets, but also appreciates her personal space. Her outgoing personality shines through during playtime — she’s always ready to chase the laser pointer or explore her surroundings, making her an ideal companion for someone who enjoys an independent yet social feline friend. Thanks to the generosity of our medical staff, Shmisty's adoption fee has been fully sponsored. Shmisty is patiently waiting to meet you!

Story
Meet Levi! This sweet, calm cat came from Pink Paws Rescue, and was initially terrified in the shelter. He blossomed in foster care over the course of two months with his amazing foster parents, who helped him build trust and feel safe. Levi enjoys being around people but values his space. He’s not a lap cat yet and tends to run when approached, but he’s not aggressive—just reserved. With time and patience, he may learn to enjoy gentle touch. Levi does very well with other friendly adult cats, following them around and playing. He is calm, playful, and well-behaved, and would do best in a quiet home, preferably without young children.
