2 mice and a bird

You'd think with 6 to 7 inches of recent snow hunting would be poor.   Not for Daisy.  When shoveling snow in front of the house I found a mess of small feathers on the ground.  Around noon I saw one mouse laying near my bicycle.  Less than an hour later I found another mouse by the door.  Then Daisy came in the house for her afternoon nap.  Come evening she had no interest in going outside.  What a hunter!

Toilet paper

Since Tammy has been away Daisy hasn't had anybody to play tag, peek a boo, or slipper fighting.  She also doesn't have anyone to let her outside around 6:30 am each morning.  So Daisy comes into the bedroom and scratches on the bed's mattress at the foot of the bed to wake me up.  If I ignore her she comes over and scratches the mattress near my head.  Try ignoring that!

Sunday morning Daisy discovered a new play activity.



After a busy morning playing Daisy was all tuckered out. She laid on the couch by me and then started snoring.

Shower drain work

Today Daisy and I worked on cleaning the shower drain.

Ok.  Let's see what the problem is.

Reaching in with her paw

Is the drain clear now?

Did the plunger work?

Yes it did.  Daisy and I cleaned the drain.

Where's Tammy?

Daisy is missing Tammy.  She had taken to laying on my computer's mouse and messing with my keyboard.  She also crawled into the computer chair with me, half laying on the seat and the rest on my legs.  There is not quite enough room for the both of us and I end up holding her from falling with one hand.  Normally Daisy gets her "computer and people" time with Tammy and rarely sits in my chair with me.

When the weather was nice yesterday Daisy spent most of the day outside.  She even caught her second mouse (a big fat one) of the year and left it on the front step.  Today Daisy only spent a little time outside and only when I was outside feeding the cattle.  Too chilly.

Where's Tammy?

Ready to go with Tammy

Tammy left today for a visit with her family in Minnesota.  Yesterday when Tammy was packing her suitcase Daisy snuck into the suitcase.  She wanted to go with Tammy.


Take me! Take me!  I'll be good.  I promise.


Tonight Daisy is moping about and missing Tammy.

Window sleeping

It snowed a little bit overnight.  Enough that I had to shovel it today.  Daisy came outside to "help" me.   That included: walking or sitting in front of where I was pushing the snow, pouncing on the pile of snow I was pushing and then digging and spreading out the pile of snow, running after or batting little snowballs that rolled down off the big pile I was tossing the snow onto, etc.

Add in some fence climbing, fence walking, bird watching, cattle watching and so on.

No wonder Daisy fell asleep early afternoon when, from the window, she watched me shovel more snow.

I regret not having the camera as Daisy "played" in the snow. Later I got the camera after she fell asleep in the window.  Naturally once I began taking photos, and before I could find a position to get a better photo, Daisy woke up.

Daisy was kind of "standing" on the open window blind and watching out the window when she fell asleep.


Soft kitty... warm kitty... sleepy kitty.

Sleep typing

The hay in the hay shed is all used up.  To feed the cattle I now have used enough hay bales from the barn that Daisy can now jump up different levels to the top of the hay bales.  She spent the afternoon checking the barn for mice. So... she was tired in the evening and slept on the snuggie next to Tammy.

What a flexible spine!!!

But Daisy still wanted to help Tammy on her computer and started some "sleep typing".

Curled in her basket



Sometimes Daisy can't quite fit in the basket.



This is what I think of all your picture taking!
