The James family just got a little more pawsome. Savannah James introduced a new furball to her 2.5 million Instagram followers—and this time, it’s not a dog. Say hello to Milo, the first-ever cat (as far as fans know) to join the otherwise canine-loving family.
In a cozy moment shared via Instagram story update, Vannah gave a glimpse of the sleek Siamese cat exploring his new home. “Hi Milo,” she wrote with a heart-eye emoji. Though she didn’t share much more, there’s no doubt that Milo is already the center of attention. And the timing feels just right.
With Bronny James off lighting up the NBA Summer League and Bryce beginning his college journey in Arizona, LeBron and Savannah are adjusting to a quieter house. Their youngest, Zhuri, is growing up fast, and suddenly there’s more space—and maybe more need—for a new companion. And for Savannah, who’s always had a strong maternal presence online, Milo might just be the new “baby” the family didn’t know they needed.

Interestingly, Milo’s arrival marks a curious shift in the family dynamic. The James crew are famously dog lovers. Their French bulldog, Indigo Sky, has basically achieved celebrity status since being adopted by the fam in 2020. Indigo lives the stereotype that dogs take after their owners. This pooch recently went viral through the family picture where he and LeBron – without coordination – had identical poses. It’s been a party game for fans since then to point out similarities between Indigo and Bron.

Then there’s King, the family’s majestic Cane Corso, a guard dog by breed, but by all accounts, a big softie in the household. So Milo, this bright-eyed Siamese kitten, is a bit of an outlier—but he might just be what the family needs. Whether he’s curling up in the sun or learning tricks from Indigo, there’s already buzz that the feline could be the James household’s next viral star.

With Bronny in Cali, and Bryce in Arizona, home feels a little emptier for Savannah James
While Savannah and Zhuri hold things down in Los Angeles, the family’s two eldest boys are in new chapters of their own.
The NBA’s Summer League kicked off on July 6, to be held in California, Utah, and Las Vegas. While LeBron James is out on the greens discovering golf, Bronny is bringing the vibes to the Summer League. He’s played 11 minutes into his summer debut so far but already earned the spotlight – from his Nike LeBron 20s (which his dad wore to the 2022 Drew League) to grabbing a steal for a LeBron-esque dunk.
What’s your perspective on:
With Bronny and Bryce moving on, is Milo the new MVP of the James household?

The Lakers beat the Miami Heat 103-83 on Sunday’s California Classic. The 20-year-old shot 3 of 7 from the field, including 2 of 5 from 3-point line, and completed the game with 10 points. Since LeBron picked up his player option, Bronny has shown he’s focused on improving for his sophomore season to extend his career with the Lakers.

It’s a crucial time for the family amid all those questions about LeBron’s future. During that time, Bryce started college life at Arizona. The three-star recruit is working towards his first NCAA season where it would be a fight to earn minutes in the roster.

With Bronny and Bryce away and the days of the kids running around the house slowing down, the arrival of Milo feels timely. Whether intended or not, it’s the kind of move that says LeBron James and his gang aren’t afraid of change—even if it comes in the form of a four-legged ball of curiosity.
And if Indigo’s fame is anything to go by, it won’t be long before Milo earns his own fan base. For now, though, the young cat is busy settling in, possibly figuring out the pecking order with a Cane Corso and a Bulldog. One thing’s for sure—Savannah just gave fans another reason to keep watching the James household, one paw print at a time.
