About this listen

Best-selling author Sheila Roberts brings us a humorous, heartwarming Christmas novel about a matchmaking cat who brings a couple together just in time for the holidays.

When a guy is in trouble, he starts making deals with his Creator…and Ambrose the cat is no exception. In danger of losing his ninth and final life, Ambrose makes a desperate plea. He’ll do anything—anything!—if he can just survive and enjoy a nice long, final life. His prayer is answered when a stranger comes along and saves him, and now it looks like he has to hold up his end of the bargain.

The stranger turns out to be a fire fighter named Zach, the quintessential commitment-phobe who’s in need of some serious romantic help. If Ambrose can just bring Zach together with Merilee, the nice lady who works at Pet Palace, it’s bound to earn him a healthy ninth life.

Unfortunately for Ambrose, his mission is a lot harder than he ever anticipated. Now it’s going to take all his feline wiles—and a healthy dose of Christmas magic—to bring them all together in time for the holidays.

This is a cute little book, I wish there were more! The ending was obvious, but the tale is told from a cat's point of view. I liked this one!

Obvious Ending

I agree with those reviewers who have already mentioned that this isn't a Christmas story per se, although some of the most significant moments in the story happen to be related to this celebration. For the most part, this is a novel for cat lovers and for humans who know the beauty and joy of being adopted by one of these felines to become their companions and caregivers.

Not a Christmas novel, but a cat story for sure

What would have been a typical romance story is told from the point of view of a cat who has to do a good deed to save his ninth life. Cute, enjoyable, well-narrated. An easy listen.

Romance story with a cute twist

What did you love best about The Nine Lives of Christmas?

I thought that Ambrose was a great touch he has as much part of the story as the humans were

What other book might you compare The Nine Lives of Christmas to and why?

I think it would.be hard.to compare to one book I think its a combination of so many wonderful stories.

What does Kathleen McInerney bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She puts you in the story, keeps you interested with well reading.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

I think when this big fireman adopts a cat and slowly starts to care for him you cant help but melt

Any additional comments?
