Arrival Story:
Millie was a stray from the streets of Red Hook, Brooklyn, whom some friends rescued and adopted as their office cat. When the long July 4 weekend of 2002 rolled around, they asked if I would take her in so she wouldn't be left alone for three days (doubly important given that she was pregnant at the time). I took her in and by the end of the weekend, we had bonded very tightly. Saccharine, perhaps, but it was enough for me to ask if I could keep her, a request that my friends quickly granted. They staunchly deny any matchmaking.

Bio:
Millie was so dubbed by her previous owners, the reason being, "She looked like a Millie." I renamed her Millicent after a long, unpleasant birthing session after finding out that it was a Teutonic name meaning "strong work," although I still refer to her as Millie for the most part. An ex nicknamed her "Bat" due to her large pointy ears, and also because, "She's complex, like a bat." It's probably a good thing that we're no longer involved. Millie is a strange combination of gregarious and aloof. Of my three, she's the one who sleeps with me the least and likes being held the most. She's often found doing her own thing away from her son and adoptive sister (although there's clearly a very strong bond between Adrian and her), but when she wants teh love, there's no fighting her off and I've at times had to work at my computer typing with my right hand while cradling her in my left arm so she won't enter her own particular idea of editing. She has no compunctions about burping in public.
