Nine Lives is the story of God's cat, who is present at the creation of Earth. While he would be more content to knock the newly formed planet off the table, God has other plans in store. He has decided that man is lonely, and since he is created in his own image, he deserves a companion made in his cat's own image as well. Cat is naturally hesitant, but God makes a bargain with him. He will have Nine Lives to explore humanity on Earth, get to know these newly created people and places.

Featuring: Jared Funderburg, Debbie Smith, Sara James, Scott Nesmith, Andrew Willmore, Jade Simmons III, S. Michael Wilson, Mike Cunliffe, Connor Grant Lyons, Taylor Richardson, and Christina Guthrie
