For cat lovers and yoga enthusiasts, there’s now a fun way to combine both passions.
Nine Lives Cat Rescue and Adoption Center held its monthly “Yoga with Cats and Kitties” event in Joplin, offering participants a chance to enjoy yoga alongside adorable furry companions.
For a fee of $15 to $20, attendees were invited to join a one-hour yoga session, specially designed for beginners, focusing on stretches and mindfulness. Meanwhile, the cats took a more relaxed approach, enjoying naps, making new friends, and even receiving a few head scratches.
“It’s amazing that we can bring together yoga and cats in such a unique way. Many people come for yoga but end up finding their forever friend without even expecting to adopt,” said Jessi Medeiros, a board member of Nine Lives Cat Rescue and Adoption Center.
All proceeds from the event went toward supporting Nine Lives, helping cover medical expenses, food, litter, and other essential care for the cats.
