The Nine Lives of Christmas

Fireman Zachary finds a stray cat that seems to take a liking to him. When he finds out that the cats owner is dead he takes care of him until he can find him a permanent home. When Zachary is out to buy cat food he meets Marilee, a veterinary student, who gives him advice on what food to get. Their paths crosses on several occasions while Marilee first looses her extra job at a pet store (at the hands of Zachary's girlfriend) and then her apartment (when the land lord finds she houses a cat). Zachary who feels guilty over her loosing her job offers Marylee to stay in a house that he's currently restoring to flip. While living there it's not only their cats who finds each other.
