Cats are experts at hiding pain. NINE makes noticing a two-minute weekly habit — and gives your vet something solid to go on.
NINE turns your phone into a calm health log for your cat. Tiny weekly checks — weight, resting breaths, body condition — become trends you and your vet can actually act on. Wellness monitoring, not veterinary diagnosis.

Is she thinner, or is it just winter fluff? A guided body-condition check gives you a score, photos and a date instead of a hunch. Next month you compare against facts, not memory — and you have something concrete to bring your vet.
Body conditionResting breath rate is one of the earliest signals vets ask about. Count while your cat naps — NINE runs the timer, saves the number, and flags a rising trend as something to raise with your vet.
BreathingSlow loss hides inside daily cuddles. Weigh-ins take seconds, and the curve does the remembering — a drifting line is worth a vet conversation long before anyone can see it.
Weight trendEvery check builds a tidy history: trends, notes, photos, all in one place. Export a one-page report your vet can read at a glance — “something’s off” becomes evidence.
Vet reportNo sensors, no wearables. A phone, a nap, and the kitchen scale you already own.
Wellness monitoring, not veterinary diagnosis.
Grams drift long before anything shows.
The earliest heart-and-lung signal you can catch at home.
A guided 1–9 score, photos attached.
Reminders, with a hard stop on double-dosing.
Dates, notes and questions, ready before you’re in the room.
Everything, exportable as one page your vet can scan.
Your first check takes about two minutes: a weigh-in, a resting-breath count while she naps, three photos. That becomes the baseline every future trend is measured against.
The physiology that makes early warning matter — and why a phone in a loving home can notice what a yearly visit can’t.
Five illnesses cats are expert at hiding: kidney disease, overactive thyroid, diabetes, urinary blockage, heart disease. Each one leaves early signs a vet can act on.
A resting-breath count takes thirty seconds of nap time — and it’s one of the few numbers you can take at home that your vet can use directly.
Days between yearly checkups — long enough for slow changes to stay invisible at home. Weekly trends close that blind spot, and tell you when not to wait for the next appointment.
Field notes are being written alongside the app. The first ones arrive with the launch.
No — and we’re careful about that. NINE measures and remembers: weight, resting breaths, body condition. When a trend drifts, it shows you exactly what to bring to your vet. Wellness monitoring, not veterinary diagnosis.
About two minutes: a weigh-in on the kitchen scale, a resting-breath count while she sleeps, and three quick photos for the body-condition score. If she is restless, skip the count and try the next nap — a rushed number is worse than none. And if her breathing ever looks like effort rather than just speed, that is no longer a weekly check. Call your vet.
No. A phone and a kitchen scale you already own. If she will not sit still on the scale, weigh her in a carrier and subtract, or weigh yourself with and without her. No collars, no sensors, nothing to charge. NINE does not replace your vet’s hands and stethoscope — the checks are there to make those visits better timed, not rarer.
NINE does not sit on it. A drifting weight curve, a rising resting-breath count or a body-condition score that steps down is flagged as something to raise with your vet, with the numbers laid out so you can bring them along. If it looks urgent — laboured or open-mouth breathing, straining in the litter box, not eating — the free emergency check is one tap away, and its answer is always the same: don’t wait for an app, call your vet.
As many as live with you. Each cat keeps a separate record, weight curve and breath history, and the switcher sits at the top of every screen. One nightly reminder covers the whole household rather than one per cat. Whatever the plan, the emergency check and the hand-held breath counter are free for every cat — and no cat’s trend should ever be read as a verdict on the others.
Yes, and it stays that way. The emergency check and the hand-held breath counter are never behind a paywall, a trial or a sign-up wall. They exist for the night something feels wrong, and nothing should stand between you and them. What they cannot do is tell you your cat is well — a checklist only asks about the signs vets list. If your gut already says emergency, skip it and call your vet or the nearest emergency clinic.
Free to start. Safety tools free forever.
