Little Mi.
February 9th, 2009
This is Milo, also known as Leo. Nathan and I found Milo as a tiny kitten who was lost and alone. We spent nights trying to catch it and help it, and one day, we managed to pull her out of the car bonnet.
We named her Milo because she was chocolate brown, and she was a fun kitten. We liked her a lot – even if she was a bit crazy, scratchy and bitey! When we left Australia, we had to leave little Mi which was pretty sad, and we missed her a lot.
We missed the way she always watched cars drive by (like she was doing in the above photo), and the way she would jump on our laps and curl up to sleep. We missed having her crazy meowing all day long, we just missed having that extra presence.
When we left, we found out that Mi could be a boy instead which was a pretty funny thought.
But with all the heat and bad fires tearing through Australia, today we heard that little Mi didn’t survive.
We’ll miss you Mi. May you now rest in peace, you wonderful little terror. [:
