Daisy (a.k.a. "Shaky Tail" or "Shithead")

July 5, 2002
Daisy is a 6-week-old kitten we just got from our friends Damion and Melinda, whose cats recently had a litter. Dot is "adjusting."

Dot's growling and hissing is pretty much done. They're getting along pretty well already. Yesterday afternoon they were both napping together on our bed. Daisy is getting way more outgoing, exploring a few more rooms in the house. Most of the time she just finds cool spots to nap. She's now known as "Squeak Toy."

Where's Daisy?

July 29, 2002
She's getting bigger by the minute...

Dot and Daisy get along, well, sometimes.

If you get a long email from me containing nothing but strange characters, it's Daisy. Literally, she's been known to delete email and send jibberish messages.

Daisy's getting bigger, for sure. She's still going to be a "midget cat," though. She and Dot have their closest encounters when there's food around.

Again the girls are spotted sharing a lick of a cheesy bowl.

Daisy likes to find her way into anything that has space for her. I'll be sitting on the can with my pants around my ankles, and she'll curl up in my underwear. Dot did this two a few times, but Daisy really loves it.

Here's Jen with Daisy. We had just put new batteries in Daisy.

Daisy likes to hang out on my desk.

Check out the new setup for letting the cats outside! Despite what you might think, they LOVE it.

November 10, 2002
Caught in the act...maybe Dot can tolerate Daisy being around.

November 13, 2002
We got Dot and Daisy a big new consolidated litter box with an odor-filtering shelter...they love it. And we also got them new feeders, which they dig.

Too shy for the camera when she's sleeping.

Tell Jen to cut the crap...

Formation sleeping

March, 2003
In the sink.

Again caught sleeping together. Friendliness will not be tolerated...cut it out.

All of Daisy's transactions are on the books.

Don't ask.

Put some new and unusual object on the floor, and within about 10 seconds, they own it... By the way, the garage is absolutely 110% Daisy's favorite room in the world.

Wanna see more about Dot or Flik, our other cats?
