Meet Mimi!
Mimi is a tiny daredevil with a very big personality. Every morning, he risks his nine lives by sneaking over from the neighbour’s balcony; a stunt he performs confidently on the 17th floor. He is a professional yeller, especially when he wants a corridor walk (which he
uses as an excuse to run for freedom).
Mimi also sniffs everything in the house like the little dog he is. I hope bro knows that he’s a cat.

Billu is an adrenaline junkie. His pupils dilate like he has just witnessed piles of hard, cold cash, and his heartbeat escalates like an F1 car especially when he is eyeing pigeons (poor buddies must be feeling so uncomfortable).

When no one is looking, Mimi creeps into the balcony and cuts the bird net with his teeth.
Like bro, are you a mouse?
If the washing machine makes another suspicious noise, he WILL fight it.

Despite all his badmaashi, violence and vandalism tendencies, Mimi is adored and showered with love by all the people living in flat 1705. To them, he is their cat as much as he is their neighbour’s, he is like their baby.
