Guest Appearance: LeiLei, Volume VII - A Bold Choice

Here you can see LeiLei has made quite a bold choice for a napping location. This is a location that is frequently moved. More importantly, napping here puts LeiLei at risk of having a pair of pants unceremoniously tossed upon her. 

But that is a risk that LeiLei is willing to take.

Guest Appearance: LeiLei, Volume XIV - All Curled Up

Here you can see LeiLei performing yet ANOTHER napping strategy developed by Dave, this time The Conch. 

Dave is glad to see that LeiLei performs it to perfection. He feels like Mozart would probably feel after hearing the London Symphony Orchestra play his compositions. 

Guest Appearance: LeiLei, Volume XIII - CSI: LeiLei

It is no secret that Dave and Jack enjoy looking out windows (see here, here and here). The reasons for this are obvious. They live indoors, and enjoy the opportunity to look outside. 

But it appears that LeiLei also enjoys this activity, establishing her cat bona fides yet again. It turns out that The Dafe and Action Jackson are not the only investigators in the family. 

Guest Appearance: LeiLei, Volume VII - RocketLeiLei

The similarities between LeiLei and her colleagues only continue to mount. Here you can see that she has adopted the RocketDave pose, one of Dave's favorites. 

At this point, you might begin to wonder if LeiLei is just copying the strategies of other cats, but that would be the wrong way to think about it. In fact, Dave's impetus for developing creative napping strategies goes far beyond a mere desire to be comfortable. He wants to share his inventions and discoveries with other cats all around the globe, so that they too can be comfortable. He is glad that LeiLei has found comfort in the RocketDave pose. 

Guest Appearance: LeiLei, Volume VI

It was originally thought that LeiLei was truly her own cat, one with only minimal similarities with other cats. But this has proven to be an incorrect assumption. She has been witnessed adopting Dave-like napping strategies (LeiLei, The Dafe). She has been seen investigating the same things Dave likes to investigate (LeiLei, The Dafe). She has even been found enjoying her time in a confined space, much like Jack does (LeiLei, Jack).

But today, LeiLei has outdone herself yet again. This time, she was found taking a break from studying, in a very Goldie-like way. 

Guest Appearance: LeiLei, Volume V

Dave is not the only cat in the world with a penchant for goofballery. LeiLei, one of Dave's colleagues who lives in a different home, also displays some goofball tendencies from time to time. In this case you can see LeiLei either pretending to not know which way is up or down, or actually getting confused about which way is up or down. 

Probably pretending.

Guest Appearance: LeiLei, Volume IV

LeiLei has been keeping a low profile lately. She is slightly more demure than Dave tends to be, but not overly so. She is much more likely to be found on a shelf in the closet than in a standoff, for example.

Guest Appearance: LeiLei, Volume III

It looks like LeiLei has something else in common with The Dafe, a passion for investigating. That's what a cat has to do when he/she is not allowed outdoors. In some places, it is a sad reality that cats should not go outside. It is unsafe. So instead of investigating things like trees, bushes, and car tires, cats like LeiLei and Dave focus on things like bathtubs, leftover food, trash cans, and other such items. 

Guest Appearance: LeiLei, Volume II

LeiLei generally leans toward tidiness, but even she adopts some more Dave-like antics at times. Especially in the warmer months, you might find LeiLei in a position like this. Perhaps if she got to spend time with Dave, LeiLei could learn other great napping strategies, but she is clearly doing alright on her own.

Guest Appearance: LeiLei

Another member of Dave's extended family is LeiLei. Like Fluffy and Blue, LeiLei has not yet had the pleasure of meeting Dave. She is assertive enough to handle Dave's rambunctiousness, but her personality is more like Jack's, so she might not always appreciate Dave's antics. She does appreciate, however, all of the napping strategies Dave has developed. She is a particular fan of The Crevasse.
