After a woman brought home a senior cat, she was surprised to find that nothing amused her. During an interview, she says, "In my mind, I had an idea of getting a six-month-old to two-year-old cat."

'Millie' was a ten-year-old cat when the owner brought her home. She wouldn't play with her toys and just wanted to sit on her owner's lap on the couch.

"She's super talkative, and she's got this raspy, old woman's voice," said the owner. In addition to her new cat 'Millie,' she has two dogs named 'Yogurt' and 'Tiger.'

According to her, the dogs are both very good with Millie. She said after four days of having Millie, she and the dogs were bonding and lying together as a family.

Millie has had her share of medical struggles, including needing five teeth pulled. She also has asthma and a deformed rib. However, she remains very loveable.

Millie's owner says, "She's just kinda like a little potato." Throughout the interview, there are clips of the gray cat lying around and bonding with the dogs and her owner.

It is a story of unexpected love between an older cat and its new owner. While she was planning on getting a younger cat, the owner wouldn't trade Millie for the world.
