It all began with the dream of wanting to help cats get out of the kennel setting environment. Walking through a shelter seeing their sad faces makes my heart ache. We adopt them out of the shelters and acclimate them into a home-like setting where it will increase their adoption rate by over 60%. I have always worked in a cooperate setting so branching out into the world of small businesses was an extremely scary step to take. I left my cooperate job a month after we opened our doors in March of 2021 to come and help with the daily operations of running my business full time. It was the best decision I have ever made next to marrying my husband :).

I truly hope you enjoy every second of visiting Joplin’s first Cat Lounge, we wouldn’t be able to do it without you.

I started at Nine Lives January 2021 knowing that I wanted to be a part of making a difference in cat’s lives. My passion is helping get cat’s and at Nine Lives I get to do just that by helping get cat’s out of the stressful kennel environment and bringing them to a place where they can thrive in the home-like setting of the Lounge, while they wait for their forever families. Prior to Nine Lives I worked as a waitress for the majority of my adulthood. I love building relationships and making a difference in others’ lives, so when I heard of Nine Lives, I knew I needed to be a part of the coolest business in town. Now, I get to build relationships with people with the Cafe and help care for cats but ultimately, connecting families to their new fur baby! My dream and plan would be to help Nine Lives continue to grow, so we can help as many cats as possible. My goal is to make your visit to Nine Lives the best experience. Without the support from our customers, we wouldn’t be able to continue helping all of the kitties!
