Daisy (cat)

Daisy is a long-furred, creamy brown she-cat with pale blue eyes.

Starlight

 * Daisy is first introduced as a loner living at the Horseplace located in the Clans' new home with two other loners, Floss and Smoky. Her mate is Smoky, a white and gray tom. It is noted that she is heavily pregnant with kits. Daisy is noted to call Twolegs Nofurs, and mentions that she and Smoky live in the stable with the horses at the horseplace. Daisy looks impressed when Whitetail points out that Smoky is protecting his nursery and reveals that another cat named Floss also lived there, and already had her kits the previous day.

Twilight

 * She and her newborn kits, Mouse, Berry, and Hazel, run away from the Horseplace right after the kits are born, so they would not get taken by Twolegs, or Nofurs, as they call them, like all of Floss's kits were. Cloudtail, Spiderleg and Thornclaw find her frightened under a bramble bush with her kits, to which she claims she was driven out by WindClan. Spiderleg offers to chase her off their territory. When Cloudtail says no to Spiderleg's request, she is taken to camp, and to Firestar. Firestar, leader of ThunderClan, offers her a place in ThunderClan for her and her kits. Daisy later noticed Brightheart when she came to talk with Cloudtail. Her kits are intensely scared of Brightheart especally when she yells at them for ruining the herb stock in Cinderpelt's den. It seems that Daisy incidentally supported their calling, by naming Brightheart "that ugly cat." Cloudtail offers to teach her some fighting moves, although she is not much of a fighter and she is very afraid during the badger attack on ThunderClan's camp. Her kits are renamed Hazelkit, Mousekit, and Berrykit in order to fit in the Clan better with proper names.

Sunset

 * Daisy never ends up being a very good fighter, and becomes very afraid of the forest after the badger attack on ThunderClan. Unfortunately for her, before Daisy has a chance to recover from her shock, Berrykit's tail is mangled by a fox trap and Daisy's fear of the forest escalates. Cloudtail was chosen to leave at first, but Daisy doesn't want Cloudtail to leave, but he does to find Berrykit. As a result, in Sunset, she runs away with her kits, back to the barn they had come from. Cloudtail and Brambleclaw later come and convince her to return, and the kits are glad to be back in ThunderClan. At first, Daisy is in love with Cloudtail, although he may not realize it, she wanted to be his mate and have kits. He never shared the feelings though there was a suspicion throughout the clan, Cloudtail just wanted to help a previous outsider like himself. Later, Daisy apologizes to Brightheart for her affections. Daisy admits that a reason she left ThunderClan was because she didn't have any cat in the Clan that she was close to, like Brightheart was with Cloudtail. Brightheart accepts Daisy's apology, and they become good friends.

The Sight

 * Daisy has been shown to have no desire for combat, so she remains in the nursery and tends to the kits. It is mentioned that she was the one who tended to Squirrelflight's kits while Ferncloud nursed them because when Squirrelflight gave birth to Jaykit, Lionkit and Hollykit, her milk didn't arrive. She is shown helping Squirrelflight patch up the holes in the nursery with leaves, and tells Squirrelflight to let her kits enjoy themselves while they could.


 * She and Ferncloud are later put in charge of Jaykit, Lionkit and Hollykit as part of their punishment for sneaking out of camp; they have to let the two queens know where they are at all times and before they leave the nursery. She soothes Hollykit's nervousness before her and her siblings' apprentice ceremony.


 * She comes to Leafpool to report that Ferncloud is coughing and wheezing, but that her kits seem unharmed. She takes over the care of the kits as Ferncloud is isolated from them, so they don't become ill as well, and warns Dustpelt against hanging around the nursery, as he'll worry his kits.

Dark River

 * She suns herself outside the nursery while watching Ferncloud's kits Icekit and Foxkit. She says she and the kits will wait to eat, as the only thing that's left on the fresh-kill pile is a stale mouse. She doesn't let Foxkit eat it as he has a cold and she wants him to have only warm food.


 * She quietly speaks up for Millie on choosing to keep her kittypet name along with Brook when Firestar performed Millie's warrior ceremony. She tells the other cats that she chooses not to hunt or fight because tending kits is what she does best, but that she does it in her chosen name.

Outcast

 * She and Spiderleg have a litter of two kits: Toadkit and Rosekit. Before her older kits' warrior ceremony, she fiercely grooms them, saying they can't be in the ceremony looking like a scruffy band of rogue kits. She watches the ceremony proudly, though Jaypaw senses that she is anxious about leaving her two new kits alone.


 * When a patrol brings two intruders to the ThunderClan camp, she sweeps her tail protectively around her two new kits, who are playing in a patch of sun. She later relaxes and shares tongues with Millie as her kits continue playing.

Eclipse

 * She is shown often to be overprotective of her two kits. Toadkit gets stung by nettles, and she gets in the way of Jaypaw's work by pacing anxiously around her kit. He eventually tells her to go check on Rosekit and she leaves. When news of WindClan thieving reach her ears, she only worries about her kits, not the Clan.


 * She is seen shooing Toadkit and Rosekit out of the nursery when they tickle Briarkit, Bumblekit and Blossomkit with a feather. Sol spots her, and comments on how she's not Clanborn. Spiderleg quickly jumps to her defense.


 * She tells Spiderleg to take care when he goes out to battle WindClan, and takes shelter with the elders, Millie, and all the kits in Firestar's den. She is worried that the camp will be attacked again. After the sun vanishes and reappears, she carries Toadkit down from the Highledge, and later brings feathers for the wounded Squirrelflight's nest. In the nursery, she tells Millie, who is coughing, that she feels a bit feverish, and then leads her two kits outside as Lionpaw cleans the bedding out from the nursery. Once it is confirmed Millie has whitecough, Daisy takes her two kits and moves with them to the apprentices' den to keep from getting ill, and soothes Millie's kits as well.

Long Shadows

 * She and her kits have moved back into the nursery, and she is anxious that her kits will start coughing as well as Millie and Briarkit. She is put in charge of nursing Bumblekit and Blossomkit when their mother falls ill, and Jaypaw brings her borage to help her milk come. She manages well, with Ferncloud helping her. When Rosekit falls ill and has to go to the abandoned Twoleg nest with the other sick cats, she wants to go, but is persuaded by Brambleclaw to stay and care for the remaining healthy kits.


 * She shows concerns for her mate Spiderleg when he falls ill as well, and she brings him a vole in Leafpool's den. Spiderleg states flatly that he doesn't want it, and she is offended. She also tells him his kits are worried about him as well, though it's a wonder they remember him, because he never came to visit them. She is hurt that he wants nothing to do with his kits, and tells him he's missing out; that his own kits will soon forget him, and she leaves the medicine den. It is mentioned later that they are no longer mates, as Spiderleg tells Leafpool it just didn't work out.


 * She carries Blossomkit out of the camp when the forest catches on fire, and later welcomes Millie and Briarkit back to the nursery once they are healed.

Sunrise

 * Daisy questions Cloudtail about bringing Sol back to the camp, because she is worried about the safety of her kits. She seems to have slightly rekindled her relationship with Spiderleg, as she later supervises him playing with his kits, and asks him if he can't be a scarier badger, and after he leaves, she encourages the kits to keep warm.


 * Later on, she protested against Jayfeather after he snapped at Toadkit when he jumped on his tail. She is later seen guiding the kits into the nursery for the night, promising they can play tomorrow. When Sol arrives in the camp, she is seen holding her tail protectively around her kits. After the snake attack on Honeyfern, she keeps an eye on the frightened kits, and helps Millie warn them against going near that part of the cliff again. She becomes severely frightened at Briarkit's near death, and Leafpool has to give her a poppy seed to calm her down.

The Fourth Apprentice

 * Daisy's kits, Toadkit and Rosekit, are now warriors known as Toadstep and Rosepetal.


 * Daisy is seen mostly with Ferncloud, and remains in the nursery still. She attends Dovekit's and Ivykit's apprentice ceremony.


 * She worries when Poppyfrost disappears suddenly, and she goes to the elders den where Jayfeather was. He leads her out of the den and into the clearing and reassures her about Poppyfrost, though Daisy is still anxious. She is lead into the nursery by Ferncloud, but she visits Jayfeather again. She explains that she was really worried about Poppyfrost, and how depressed the she-cat had been lately. She also reveals that Poppyfrost thought Berrynose didn't love her, and still wished to be with Honeyfern. Jayfeather tells her that he will send word to Firestar and leads her back to the nursery. Daisy is one of the first to greet Poppyfrost when she returns to camp, Berrynose having guided her back to the nursery.


 * She stays with Poppyfrost during her kitting, and was the one who woke Berrynose up when he first learned that the kits were coming. She licks the she-cat's head for reassurance and helps her drink water from moss.

Fading Echoes

 * Daisy is mentioned to prefer to stay in the nursery full-time with Ferncloud, helping new queens and their kits. She is alarmed when Heathertail and Breezepelt come inside the camp while escorting Ivypaw and Dovepaw home, thinking it is an attack.


 * She is seen evacuating the camp as the tree is falling, and she picks up Cherrykit on her way out, as Poppyfrost is carrying Molekit. She comforts her after the tree falls, as the kit is terrified. Firestar puts her in charge of the queens, kits and elders and tells her to keep them calm.

Secrets of the Clans

 * Daisy tells the story of how she eventually was led to come to ThunderClan. Daisy finds that her friend Floss' kits have disappeared. Daisy says that the kits couldn't even walk, and Floss tells her that she thinks the Twolegs took them. When wondering why the Twolegs would do this, Daisy asks. Smoky suggests that the Twolegs might need the kits for another barn. Daisy then sees that she would not be able to have her kits in the barn with her, and that she would go into the forest and raise them there. She says that Smoky always liked Floss more than he liked her, anyway, and that she could leave without much trouble. She mentions the fact that when the Clans came to the lake she saw a white cat that looked welcoming and could have been a good mate (Cloudtail) and an orange leader with "warm" eyes (Firestar). Daisy believes that those cats seemed kind enough to trust and she leaves the barn with her three kits.

Cats of the Clans

 * Daisy is briefly mentioned when Rock is talking about Firestar. Rock tells the three kits of StarClan that because Firestar became leader of ThunderClan, no cat could argue that Daisy does not serve the Clan well in the nursery.

Battles of the Clans

 * Daisy is mentioned in the section, Whitewing Speaks: My First Battle. Brightheart tells Whitepaw to go with Daisy and her kits to hide outside of the camp.

 * Daisy has been mistakenly described as having white fur.
