Ok, so it seems like I’m introducing a cat a day on here and today it’s Daisy’s turn!

Daisy came into our lives at the start of Melbourne’s lockdowns, when we moved to a new house and she was in the backyard…and didn’t leave. At the time we thought she was pregnant, but it turned out she had already had her kittens and our landlord had surrendered them to council.

Daisy, we are told, is Diego’s GRANDMA! She comes from the same neglectful neighbour (who is aware that we have been taking in her cats). Because she pretty much fended for herself for the first ~2 years of her life, she’s semi-feral (she doesn’t look it and she’s come a long way since we took her in, but you can’t take the wild out of the girl, y’know).

She is objectively the prettiest girl in the world, though this picture doesn’t really capture that. She loves playing “shoelace”, especially when I let her use my slippers
