Cat in the bag

Saturday afternoon Tammy got a grocery bag for Daisy to play with.  When Daisy looked inside the bag Tammy would scratch the outside end of it.  That got Daisy's interest for a while.  When they were done playing Daisy crawled in the bag to play, then take a nap.

Put that camera away!  I'm trying to get some sleep here!

Then in the evening Daisy sat near the well.  She occasionally looked up the tree at where the robins are building a nest.

Sleepy computer cat

The past few nights Daisy has decided to sit or sleep near me when I am on the computer.  She is here right now.

She does her grooming here also.

Daisy also sleeps soundly.

As you can see Daisy likes to lay on the mouse cord which makes it hard for me to use it.  Daisy was awake when I took this photo but looked away when I got my camera out.

Helping with burning

When I was burning the grass and horse manure in the NE pasture Daisy was out helping me.  Here she is stalking something.  Either she saw a bug or a mouse hole.  With the warmer weather some flies are out and about and sometimes Daisy runs around trying to catch them.  I swear this cat is part dog.

More computer cat

What are we playing on the computer tonight?

What do you mean... get off the computer?

No... I want to stay on the computer with you.

Pouting.

Computer cat plays games

Daisy has spend some evenings with Tammy on the computer.  Daisy uses Facebook with Tammy and also plays computer games.  When Daisy posts on Facebook her messages often are misspelled with multiple letters in a row.

Here is how you play this game.

What do mean this is not a touch screen computer?

Let's play Tumblebugs!  I like this game.

No, not Solitaire!   That's a boring game.

Here is a video of Tammy and Daisy playing Tumblebugs.  It is 49 seconds long.

Another night Daisy wanted to play on the computer but Tammy had work to do.  So she forbid Daisy from getting on her computer.  Daisy had to put one paw on the computer anyway.  She fell asleep holding onto Tammy's computer.

In the bush for birdees

Daisy again comes up short when playing with the birds.

Busted!

More stretching

I swear Daisy doesn't have a spine.  Just look at those positions.

Here Daisy is helping Tammy packing a gift for one of her grand kids.

Daisy is acting as a supervisor.

Ok... now fold the paper over on this side and tape it shut.

Slipping off the loveseat

More crazy sleeping habits of Daisy.

Sleeping on her back

It's a wonder Daisy doesn't get a crick in her neck. She has to lay against or touch Tammy when they are on the couch together.

Once Tammy got up off the couch Daisy was able to stretch out.

Where are you Tammy?  Come back!

Here is a 46 second video of Daisy sleeping on her back and then woken up by me.

Two in the hayfield

Daisy gets a little nervous when she crosses the fence into the hayfield.  I wonder if it is that she feels exposed to some big bad birds?  Here I watched over her and the cattle while encouraging her to look for mice.

After sleeping in her sink this afternoon Daisy has crazy energy tonight.  A little while ago as I was sitting by the computer Daisy came hopping into the living room from the wood stove hallway.  All four of her legs were straight, her back was arched up, and she hopped kind of forward and kind of sideways.  And she had a goofy look on her face.  She did this until she got my attention then she stopped.   Then when I asked her what she was doing she looked around then began to chase her tail in circles.   She can be such a goofy cat.

New toys

Last week when I got Daisy a brush I also bought some new toys for her.

Mr and Mrs Mouse

I also bought a small ball with a bell inside. That is the pink ball seen below.

No, I am not going to go crazy over my new toys.   ...at least not until you are no longer watching me with the camera.

Lastly I crunched up some aluminum foil into a lightweight ball for Daisy to bat around.

Right now Mr Mouse is getting the worst of it as Daisy's claws are sharp.

I also have to restock (resock?  ) the sock with more flakes of catnip as the sock gets rubbed on and chewed up.

The old brown furry mouse has gone missing now for several weeks.  Even a good search failed to find it.  Even though it gave Tammy a fright a few times when it popped up unexpectedly Tammy claims not to have gotten rid of it.

More sleeping

The weather was lousy this afternoon so Daisy slept under the bench while Tammy was on her computer. Naturally Daisy woke up when I tried to take a photo of her.

Can't a girl get her beauty sleep around here without being bothered?

I'll show you... I'll stick out my tongue when you take the photo.

There.  That will teach you from taking a photo of me when I don't want my picture taken.

Now... back to sleep.

Watching herself

I guess not all cats on the screen scare Daisy.  Tonight when Tammy was watching the video of Daisy getting brushed, Daisy, who was kind of dozing, perked up and watched the video intently.
