Bottle Feeding Kittens
Bottle feeding kittens is in full swing at 9 Lives Rescue! We so much appreciate our fosters who give up sleep to keep the babies fed! On the plus side, they get to watch their little kitten ears wiggle as they nurse. That’s a dose of happiness right there.
9 Lives Volunteer Social!

Nine of our 9 Lives volunteers enjoyed good food and conversation at the Longtable Beer Cafe in Middleton on Wednesday after work. Although the venue was a bit loud, the food and drinks were excellent. We enjoyed the chance to chat with fellow volunteers, and share 9 Lives news and experiences – with the added bonus of shared kitten photos and videos!
9 Lives Rescue at Kibble 4 A Cause

9 Lives Rescue attended the Kibble 4 A Cause radiothon on Thursday morning, this year held at Barks on Bourbon in Cross Plains. We had a table indoors, while the radio stations had to set up tents outside in the chilly weather – they couldn’t broadcast from inside the metal building!
Four radio stations were present: 94.1 JJO, Magic 98, 106.7 The Resistance, and Q106, and each station interviewed many of the rescues participating. It was a full day of awareness for area rescues, and we’re so grateful!

Featured Adoptable Cat: Shiloh

Shiloh is a very friendly, talkative, playful, and affectionate cat who loves to cuddle and be pet. He has a laid-back personality and quickly warms up to people who give him attention. He’s an absolute love bug and getting him to purr is very easy. He’s a handsome boy with a lot of personality and is very smart. He even comes when you call him! He makes his foster mom smile and laugh every day.

Shiloh can live with other cats, respectful dogs, and older children who will play with him but not try to pick him up. He would do best in a home where someone is usually home, as he gets lonely when he’s alone.
He was born in 2017, is neutered, current on his vaccines, microchipped, and negative for FeLV and FIV.
