"You can rely on my loyalty until the day I join StarClan, and you must believe that I will live and die to protect ThunderClan. But I don't want to change my name. I have always been Millie, and I see no shame in it." |
— Millie to Firestar in Dark River, page 86 |
Millie is a small,[11] short-furred light gray tabby she-cat[12] with blue eyes,[13] and a torn ear.[14] She is nearly deaf.[15]
Millie was a ThunderClan elder under Bramblestar's leadership in the lake territories and previously served as a warrior under Firestar and Bramblestar. Millie was formerly a kittypet who met Graystripe when he was captured by Twolegs. She joined him on his journey to find the Clans, and he taught her how to be a warrior. After finding the Clans, they were welcomed by ThunderClan, and during a Clan meeting, Millie refused to have a warrior name. Despite some protests, she proved herself as a loyal and capable member of the Clan and later had Graystripe's kits, Bumblestripe, Blossomfall, and Briarlight. When Briarlight broke her spine as an apprentice, Millie spent a majority of her time fretting over her daughter and ignoring her other kits. She later retired to the elders' den, joining Graystripe, Sandstorm, and Purdy. She later died as her health began to decline, surrounded by her kin.

But I couldn't have made it here without you. You saved my life, but...more than that...you saved my soul. You found me when I was lost, and you brought me back to who I really was. I've already said I want you to join ThunderClan with me, but I need you to know how I feel...And I hope you'll feel the same way. Millie...I want you to stand by my side...as my mate."
