This feels like a very nice card from 4th-edition era. Cat, nine lives got it. Nice. (Although slightly odd that the familiar is itself a wizard?)

A more modern design would simplify this - 9 lives is basically never going to get used up, so may as well just give this indestructible.

And then this lets you notice that three mana is just slightly too cheap for a 1/1 that is unkillable with no ongoing cost for the unkillableness.
