Long before she and Milo Ventimiglia shared the screen in 'This Is Us,' the actress was snuggling a four-legged friend with the same moniker.
Move over, Milo Ventimiglia!
Mandy Moore introduced the world to the original Milo in her life by sharing an adorable flashback photo on Friday. In the vintage snap, a young Moore is pictured with a huge grin on her face, lying on the ground and cuddling an orange cat.
"Me and the first Milo in my life," she captioned the pic, noting that the furry feline was "named after the movie Milo and Otis, duh." Moore hashtagged the post with "#CatsForLife" for good measure.

The This Is Us star doesn't exactly reveal which Milo is her favorite, but she did recently call Ventimiglia her "other half" in a sweet interview with ET.
"At this point, it's like he's my other half," she said in January. "I saw him this morning and I was like, 'I haven't seen you in three or four days. I miss you!' He's like, 'I know. I miss you, too!'"
Meanwhile, Ventimiglia offered a swoon-worthy take on the pair's friendship and onscreen chemistry.
"When I have good friends, I'm always going to look out for them, protect them, make sure that they feel safe," he said. "Especially someone that I'm acting with. And playing my wife, you know? It's like I want her to do the best work she can possibly do, just like, you know, she's supporting me. So, I give her everything I can."
