Comedian Amy Miller marked a special occasion on Wednesday, announcing that her cat Miepz has reached a remarkable milestone: her 19th birthday. The news prompted a flood of well-wishes from fans who have followed the duo’s antics for years.
Birthday Milestone For Miepz
Amy Miller took to Instagram to share a series of candid snapshots (https://www.instagram.com/p/DJ92tZ3y9XP/) of Miepz decked out in a pastel party hat and surrounded by colorful balloons. “I have some news. Many of you know my cat Miepz. And unfortunately today she TURNS 19!! I’ve done everything I could and sadly she’s just unstoppable. Still 100% healthy and strong, still hunting. But IS deaf as shit so she just pretty much screams all the time. That’s been fun!! Crazy to think I got this cat in my mid-20s and now I am 68. MIEPZ FOREVER. She said she wants to do her big 20th in CABO 🎂🎈🌺 🐀🐀🐀,” Miller wrote in her caption. Despite Miepz’s hearing loss, her playful huntress spirit remains intact, much to her owner’s amusement.
Defying Feline Average Lifespan
Most domestic cats live between 12 and 15 years, making Miepz’s longevity noteworthy. Experts at the American Veterinary Medical Association note that careful diet, regular vet visits, and enriched home environments can extend a cat’s lifespan by several years. Miller credits consistent care, high-quality food, and plenty of play sessions for helping Miepz thrive well into her late teens.
A Lifelong Feline Friend
Miller first adopted Miepz in her mid-20s, an era when she was still establishing herself as a performer. Today, at age 68, the comedian reflects on years of shared memories—from impromptu garden hunting expeditions to late-night living room jams. While Miepz’s louder meows now fill their home, Miller considers them a small price for the joy of having a loyal companion. “Those early mornings of a cat sprinting down the hallway used to wake me up for rehearsals,” she joked. “Now I wake up to yowls at 2 a.m., which is an experience.”
Fans responded with an outpouring of birthday wishes across social media. Comments ranged from heart emojis to anecdotes about their own senior pets. Some followers even reposted fan art and shared tips for caring for aging cats, creating a lively community discussion under the celebratory thread.
Career Highlights & Upcoming Shows
Outside the home, Miller has enjoyed a busy schedule on the comedy circuit. She was selected as one of Comedy Central’s “Up Next” artists and released a half-hour special titled “Ham Mouth,” which streams on the Comedy Central YouTube channel. Her résumé includes appearances on Last Comic Standing, NPR, Sirius XM, and guest spots on Doug Loves Movies and The Bennington Show. Additionally, she hosts the podcast Who’s Your God?, where she interviews fellow comics and creatives.
Next month, Miller will bring her brand of witty observational humor to the Boston Comedy Festival. In a recent Instagram announcement (https://www.instagram.com/p/DHofnQfJkY-/), organizers confirmed she’ll perform at the Comedy Studio on Saturday, April 5. Festival passes and individual show tickets can be purchased at bostoncomedyfest.com.
Miepz’s 20th birthday trip to Cabo already has fans speculating on tropical photo ops and beachside nap spots. Miller has promised a travel diary documenting every moment of the celebration, from local seafood feasts to sun-soaked hammock lounging.
On a day when most headlines focus on the next big tour or project, Amy Miller chose to spotlight a quieter celebration—one defined by small victories, loud meows, and a 19-year-old cat still living her best life. Miepz may be heading to the big 2-0, but for now, both cat and comedian are simply enjoying the view from this remarkable summit.
