Millie

Millie is a small gray-striped tabby she-cat with blue eyes.

The Lost Warrior

 * She is first seen in The Lost Warrior as a kittypet who befriends Graystripe and shows him a forest when he's homesick. She was the first friendly cat Graystripe met since the twolegs captured him. Millie becomes curious about Clan life after Graystripe explains it to her, and she wants him to teach her about being a warrior. Graystripe does, and Millie learns how to hunt and fight. Her skills come to use when she and Graystripe are confronted by Duke, (whom Graystripe had lost a fight to before) and two other kittypets. A fight breaks out (Graystripe fights Duke and Millie fights the other two) and Graystripe and Millie emerge victorious. When Graystripe decides to go rejoin the Clans, Millie, who had helped to convince him of the idea, doesn't want to leave her Twolegs to go with him. She eventually changes her mind and a few days after Graystripe leaves. Millie finds him, sick and hallucinating, and nurses him back to health. The two then embark on their journey to find the Clans.

Warriors Refuge

 * In the beginning, she and Graystripe are in a corn field. A large monster (a corn harvester) scares them, causing them to run in opposite directions. She injures her eyes on the sharp leaves, and is found a short time later by Husker, Graystripe, and Splash.Husker is reluctant to let them stay, but Moss convinces him so Millie can heal. The next day, when Graystripe goes out to hunt mice, he is chased by the Twoleg dogs, and is trapped at a dead end.Millie saves him by scaring the dogs away. It is then revealed Millie can talk dog, and teaches it to Moss's kits, Husker, Splash and Moss. Graystripe asks her if she misses her housefolk, and she says her place is with him now.They travel for a while and at the end of the book, she and Graystripe find the old forest gone.

Warrior's Return

 * In this book, Graystripe and Millie continue on their journey. With Graystripe ready to give up, Millie forces him to continue. They meet Ravenpaw and Barley at the barn and the two cats direct them to where the Clans were headed many moons ago. Graystripe offers for Ravenpaw to go with them, but he says his home is at the barn. On the journey they face many troubles together. Fights occur between the two and when they meet Diesel, a cat at a truck stop, Graystripe feels like he has to compete with him. After being hit by a monster, Millie and Diesel take care of him until he is ready to leave. Millie suggests that they ride on a twoleg monster to the sun-drown place because his shoulder is still sore. Graystripe agrees. When at a rest stop, they are attacked by kittypets and don't recognize Millie as one of their own. Finally, they reach sun-drown place and head towards the lake. Graystripe tells Millie how he feels and asks her to be his mate. Millie accepts by saying "That's what I've wanted since I first laid eyes on you". They walk together onto the island, just in time for the Gathering. Everyone turns and sees the two of them standing together ready to speak. Graystripe starts to introduce Millie to the Clans, as the book ends.

The Sight

 * Millie and Graystripe return to the Clans during a Gathering. She surprises many cats because of her courage to journey such a far distance and how her voice was compared to Daisy's soft voice. ThunderClan takes the pair in without hesitation. On their return to camp Jaypaw notices that Millie's paw was infected. Millie's infected paw is tended to by the medicine cats. Millie and Graystripe fight side by side against ShadowClan in a border battle that permits Millie to prove her fighting skills. Graystripe pulls a ShadowClan warrior off Millie, and Mille then gives the warrior a blow with her claws that sprays his blood everywhere. Later, when greencough rages through the camp, she explains to Graystripe, Firestar, and Brambleclaw that she'd gotten medicine from the vet that kept her from getting sick. Firestar says that the vet has done him a favor: the vet gave him a healthy warrior, which Millie glows with pride and Graystripe purrs for the praise his mate gets.

Dark River

 * At the Gathering, Whitetail calls her "kittypet," but thanks her for sharing prey during the daylight gathering. Whitetail's apprentice, Breezepaw had followed his mentor to thank, but didn't respond. When Firestar performed her warrior ceremony, she decided to keep her kittypet name, instead of taking on a Clan cat name. Two cats, Brook Where Small Fish Swim, who is a Tribe of Rushing Water member, and Daisy, a former loner, congratulate her on keeping her kittypet name. Though some cats still have second thoughts.

Outcast

 * Millie moves into the nursery, pregnant with Graystripe's kits, and isn't mentioned again in the book. She appears when Ferncloud tells Foxpaw and Icepaw to get a piece of fresh kill.

Eclipse

 * Millie's belly is said to be very big. In the middle of the book she gives birth to her kits, Briarkit, Blossomkit, and Bumblekit, with the assistance of Leafpool and Jaypaw. Even though the delivery goes well, Millie says while in labor that she is never going to have kits again if giving birth to kits is that hard. She is seen in the nursery most of the time, protecting the kits. When the battle started she went and hid in Firestar's den with her kits. After the battle, Millie catches whitecough.

Long Shadows

 * Millie's whitecough turns into greencough. Briarkit eventually catches the cough as well. Briarkit and Millie are both moved to the abandoned Twoleg place in the back of ThunderClan territory. It is also noted that when they were going into the Twoleg place, Briarkit looked dead, and when cats were delivering herbs, Briarkit kept crying about Millie. Millie at the time was almost ready to join StarClan, but Silverstream allows her to live, for she does not want Graystripe's heart broken again. Graystripe and the other healthy kits miss her most of the time while she is recovering. Finally, Firestar leaves the Twoleg place with Millie and Briarkit, both are looking better, and Briarkit begins to bounce around.

Sunrise

 * Millie comforts Bumblekit when he tells her that he was scared Sol would "come and get him."


 * Her kit, Briarkit, strays too close to a crack in a sunning area, and nearly gets bitten by an adder. Honeyfern saves her, but she dies in the process.

The Fourth Apprentice

 * Millie and Graystripe's kits become apprentices, now called Briarpaw, Blossompaw, and Bumblepaw.


 * Millie is first seen sharing tongues with her mate, Graystripe, while talking to Brightheart and Cloudtail.

Fading Echoes

 * Millie is terrified and saddened for her kit Briarlight when she was struck by a tree and broke her backbone. She was taken out of the medicine cat den, wailing: "She'll never hunt. She'll never be a warrior! She'll never have kits!" She snarls at Jayfeather when he accidently scares her with the fact that she will most likely die.

Cats of the Clans

 * Millie is featured in this guide on the same page as her mate, Graystripe. Rock says that he doesn't think ThunderClan realizes just how much they owe her for bringing their leader's best friend and deputy back. Rock says that it was her determination that got them out of Twolegplace, and her encouragement that made Graystripe continue his search for the Clans.


 * Rock hopes that Graystripe never forgets how much she has given up for him, and that she has travelled a long way from her home, in more ways than one.
