Some cats chase string, others nap all day—but Milo has chosen a more refined pastime. This five-year-old tabby cat, rescued from Whiskers Rescue in Connecticut, has a unique fascination with newspapers. His family often finds him seated at the dining table, paws on the paper, as though he’s scanning the latest headlines.
Milo’s Surprising Hobby
Milo’s quirky behavior isn’t new to his owners, Eileen and Jim Gressi. Since the day he joined their family, Milo has been full of surprises. His playful yet curious personality keeps his humans guessing. But his fascination with the newspaper? That’s a new level of astonishing.
One morning, as Jim was enjoying his coffee and catching up on the news, Milo decided to join him. Not content to sit idly by, Milo leaped onto the table, placed his paws on the newspaper, and stared at it as though deep in thought. The sight of a cat seemingly engrossed in current events had Eileen laughing and reaching for her camera.
Always the Center of Attention
Milo’s antics don’t stop with the newspaper. Eileen shares that Milo loves to be involved in everything his family does. Whether sitting near Jim while he reads, chasing after pens as they roll off the table, or lounging in the sunniest spot in the house, Milo makes his presence known.
“He loves his daddy, my husband Jim,” Eileen says. It’s no wonder Milo chose to “read” alongside Jim, showing off his unique brand of feline curiosity. His playful interaction with the newspaper is just one of the many ways he entertains and charms his family.
Life Is Better with Milo
As a rescue cat, Milo has brought endless joy to Eileen and Jim. His mischievous nature and loving personality make him the heart of their home. From his fascination with the newspaper to his moments of quiet companionship, Milo reminds his family daily of the joy of adopting a pet.
While Milo may not be reading the headlines, his antics steal the spotlight. His astonishing behavior keeps his family laughing and ensures that life with Milo is never dull.
So here’s to Milo, our Pet of the Week, whose love for “current events” proves that cats are more surprising—and entertaining—than we could ever imagine.
