Meet Daisy the Curly Cat

I am traveling from Mobile back to Roanoke, and blogging from airports is dicey at best, so all you get from me today is a link to another blog. A really cool one.

Not that I want to send you away from the Wag, mind you. Please visit this recommended blog, but come back here, too. Promise?

OK, here is Daisy, a curly-coated kitty who manages her own popular blog. Daisy is inquisitive, witty and does not let the lack of opposable thumbs keep her from doing just about anything she wants.

A friend sent me this link and I just got around to checking it out just before New Year's and I am now hooked and even following Daisy on Twitter. Sigh.

So bookmark Daisy, but just remember who introduced you, 'kay?

See you all tomorrow!
