We report the following classifications of optical transients from spectroscopic observations with the Kast spectrograph on the Shane telescope. The targets were supplied by Young Supernova Experiment, Zwicky Transient Facility, and GOTO. Observations were made on 2025 November 30 UT. Classifications were performed with SNID (Blondin & Tonry, 2007, ApJ, 666, 1024).

Notes:
When the redshift is given to 2 decimal places, it is derived from the SN spectrum. Otherwise, the redshift is determined from the host galaxy.
(1) We measure Si II 6355 velocity of -12,900 km/s.
(2) We measure Si II 6355 velocity of -14,200 km/s.
