The cremation and remembrance of our loving Millie

Hello Friends,

Sadly, Mildred, a very well-loved kitty in the Riverdale area of Toronto suddenly and unexpectedly lost her life. As one person has stated, “Her love was relentless.”

Millie will not only be missed by her human friends in the community, she will also be greatly missed by her best buddy, a friendly dog with a particular affection for cats. Mildred fell in love with pup at first sight. The pup and Mildred would give each other affectionate nose kisses each morning, and take walks around the neighbourhood together. Millie and the pup were both their happiest when spending time together. They were an unlikely couple, but a couple nonetheless.

It is our hope to raise funds to cover the cost of cremation to ensure the ongoing safekeeping of Mildred. Once we receive her ashes, we will purchase some urns so that Millie can find her forever home(s) with people who were luckiest to develop incredibly close bonds with this sweet, playful, and loving girl.

Funds raised will also go toward a memorial service for Mildred, a safe space where people will be able to share their thoughts about all the beauty she contributed to the community. We will also create a keepsake postcard or print photos of her so that people can be reminded of the joy that Millie brought to their lives.

We have so much love and admiration for everyone who has worked so diligently during this difficult time. They showed up for Millie when she needed protecting and honouring the most. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Should any extra funds raised beyond what we need for Mildred, those funds will be donated to support youth mental health at CAMH
