The Warrior Cats series by Erin Hunter, but check to see if she’s read any of them first 🙂
My daughter is obsessed with this series!
Mine spent four years completely immersed in it. 🙂 She has at least 30 books in her room from the various story branches.
My 9-year-old granddaughter likes Amelia Bedelia and there is one about a kitten. https://www.barnesandnoble.com/p/amelia-bedelia-and-the-cat-lynn-sweat/1105114785/2675178072326?st=PLA&sid=BNB_New+Marketplace+Shopping+Books&sourceId=PLAGoNA&dpid=tdtve346c&2sid=Google_c&gclid=EAIaIQobChMIiuzP_uGH3wIVAZBpCh0cewZ4EAQYAiABEgIbTfD_BwE
Cat and the Stinkwater War by Kate Saunders! I remember reading this as a kid and loved it

Oh so easy! The Warrior series. Both my daughters LOVED them!!!
This may be a little young for her reading level but the series is VERY good!
@Hannah yes! I loved this when I was a kid!!
And I don’t think this book is too young for a 9 year old… im tempted to revisit as a 29 year old ❤️
Those are amazing books?
Benjamin West and His Cat Grimalkin
Dewey is a good read. Doesnt have a happy ending but the cat gets a great life.
Time Cat by Lloyd Alexander.
I loved a book about flying cats… just googled it… Called Catwings
Crenshaw by Katherine Applegate was our children’s book club pick for this month at the library.
Holly Webb writes chapter books about cats; Crenshaw by Katherine Applegate; Christmas at the Cat Café by Melissa Daley
Magical! Like hard potter style
Hard potter lolol! HARRY!
The cat warrior series
Oh, and another great read is Dewey the Library Cat by Vicki Myron (non-fiction)
The Cat Who books. Lilian Jackson Braun. My sister loved those!! Maybe too advanced.
I second this one! I read those books as a teenager. I’m not sure when I started reading them, so Sarah may be right, and they may be a little bit advanced. But maybe get her the first one and let her try it out
Homer, the blind wonder cat!
I just saw a series called Purmaids. Cat mermaids!
My 9 year old daughters are obsessed with Percy Jackson
The Warriors. It’s a series—maybe 24 books now—about communities of feral cats. My son discovered them at seven, and read them fiercely until he was 10 or 11.
@Vera I agree
Me too
My daughter loved the Warriors series when she was younger.

Elephi the Cat with High I. Q. by Jean Marsh
Pony pal
Gobbolino the Witch’s Cat.
Upside Down Magic by Sarah Mlynowski
Gobbolino, the Witch’s Cat by Ursula Moray Williams.
Carbonel by Barbara Sleigh.
Dewey: The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched the World by Vicki Myron…Homer’s Odyssey: A Fearless Feline Tale, or How I Learned about Love and Life with a Blind Wonder Cat by Gwen Cooper…James Herriot’s Cat Stories by James Herriot…
Warriors by Erin Hunter. I started them in elementary and read them through junior high and I loved them. There’s tons of books in the series. I dont even think I finished them because the school library didnt have them all. Definitely recommend them for her though.
My daughter gobbled up the Warriors series!
Omg I just recently bought my niece a book about a cat I’ll test my sister-in-law to send me the names. She is 7
HARRY POTTER!
Catstronauts
