Other work[edit | edit source]

Although all of her pony-themed music has been released under the name Cats Millionaire, McCallion herself releases music under a large number of pseudonyms in addition to her real name, including Girls Rituals, Yellow Bile, EAT BABIES?, Triangle Giant and Mom.[1]

In 2017, she co-created the group Black Dresses with fellow Canadian Ada Rook. Their work received positive reviews in indie music circles,[2][3] including appearing on Vice's "The 22 Best Albums You May Have Missed in 2019".[4] The duo announced they were breaking up in May 2020 after one of their tracks regarding McCallion's experiences with childhood sexual assault became popular on TikTok, leading to "extended harassment" after McCallion tried to have them removed.[5][6]

McCallion's pony OC (ostensibly named Cats Millionaire) is a light brown earth pony mare with a messy, dark brown mane and tail and glasses. She is frequently depicted smoking a cigarette and looking disinterested.

The cover art for 3, the third collection of music released under the pseudonym "Mom", depicts Cats Millionaire attached to a leg shackle.
