🐾 GREAT NEWS! 🐾

Remember the litter of kittens we’ve been working so hard to rescue from under the Wendy House? As you know, Mom moved them and two of the babies were still missing.
Well, we have some wonderful news to share tonight... WE CAUGHT ONE OF THEM! 🎉 🥳

Meet our newest rescue—a sweet little ginger baby! 🧡🐱
It took a lot of patience, and some seriously smelly bait, but this little one is finally safe, warm, and out of harm's way.

The mission isn't over yet, though. The last kitten hasn’t been seen anywhere and we’re praying that it’s unharmed and we will still find it. 🤞🐾
We’ll keep you all updated on the ginger baby's progress and our ongoing rescue efforts for the final kitten. Thank you all so much for your incredible support, your shares, and for cheering us on—we couldn't do this without our amazing supporters! 💪🐱
👉 Want to help us care for our newest arrival? Donations of kitten food, blankets, or funds for vet checks are always desperately needed.
Please contact Karen on 0829901426 to arrange a drop off.

🐾 MISSION: CENTRAL KITTENS 🐾

Look at these precious little faces! 🥺 A mom and her three kittens have been living in the backyard of a business in Central.
This truly is no place for kittens and we thankfully managed to catch two of the babies this afternoon! 🎒✨
Traps have been set overnight, and we are crossing everything that we wake up to Mom and the last little sibling in the traps. 🤞🏼🌙

Rescues like this happen every day, but we can't do it without you. 🙏🏼
If you can spare even R50 to help us cover their vet checks, food, and the costs of helping the next unsaved kittens waiting out there, please consider making a small donation today. 💸 Every little bit truly saves a life. 🐾❤️
We will keep you updated on the overnight traps. 🥰🐈‍⬛

🐾 OUR TINY TUXEDO "TOUGH GUYS"! 🐾

We have to laugh at this duo, the first two kittens caught with mommy on Thursday. These two gorgeous tuxedo boys have decided they are absolute lions—and they are working very hard to make sure we know it! 🦁🦁
While their sister is calm and collected, these two little brothers think they are the scariest things on four legs. The moment you walk in, the tiny growls start. It’s their way of saying, "Fear us, we are fierce predators!" (Spoiler alert: they are just ridiculously cute).
But we’ve already figured out their weakness. 🤫👇
• Step 1: Scoop up the "wild beasts."
• Step 2: Wrap them into a cozy little purr-ito swaddle. 🌯
• Step 3: Administer head scratches and love.
And just like magic... the growling stops, the tough-guy act melts away, and they realize that being loved on isn’t so bad after all!
We are absolutely certain these little sweethearts are going to settle down in no time once they realize they're completely safe. They just need a tiny bit of extra patience, lots of swaddles, and time to let their guard down.
Keep an eye out for updates on these handsome boys and their sister as they start their journey toward finding their forever homes! 🖤🤍

Rescue Update: 3 of 5 Safe! 🐾

We have some wonderful news to share this evening—the little Calico girl is officially safe and in our care! 🧡🖤🤍
But our mission isn’t over yet. There are still two more waiting for their turn, and we are counting down the hours until we can head back out on Sunday afternoon to bring them to safety.

Please keep us in your thoughts and hold thumbs for a quick and successful rescue on Sunday. We won’t rest until all five are safely in foster care.
Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you for being part of our rescue journey! 🙏✨

MOMMA & THE WENDY HOUSE KITTENS 🐾

We’ve had an eventful day with a feline family from a local business! Mama cat was trapped quickly and is off to be sterilized tomorrow—a huge thank you to Cat Care for sponsoring her surgery.🎗️
The five kittens living under a wendy house are proving trickier since they aren't eating solids yet, making traps less tempting. We managed to safely catch two darling boys by hand who ran into the hut! 🐾 We’ve set a trap overnight for the remaining three and will be back in the morning to check on them. ⛅
A massive thank you to Claire for fostering our two newcomers! 🏠💖
Stay tuned for updates tomorrow morning—send us some "good trapping" vibes! 🍀💕

Hi, we are either up for adoption or outreach animals at Nine Lives Cat Foundation.

You can sponsor us a gift. R250 and the volunteers at Santa Cause for Paws will shop and pack the perfect gift for me or an animal similar to me. For now these will go out over Christmas, unless the charities want them sooner - we will work with charities to see what they would like
