Longing for a new couch

Dave's couch has been very good to him over the past several years. There have been many good times, times Dave will remember for the rest of his life.  

But there are times when he looks at the couch, which is really a futon, and thinks to himself, "This couch has served me well, helping me develop countless legendary napping strategies. I would not have traded my time with this couch for the world, but perhaps I have gone as far as I can go with this couch. It may be time for a replacement, a new couch that can allow me to reach even further into the depths of greatness."

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. 

The Conch, Volume IX: The Wide Awake Version

Here you can see Dave in his typical Conch position, one he usually uses for napping. In this case, Dave is awake. He probably was startled during a nap, and decided not to exert energy to change his position. Dave doesn't like to waste his energy on things that don't need it. More than likely, Dave will return to his nap shortly, so it doesn't even make sense to move around.

Turtle Dave

Dave's size and flexibility allows him to present himself to the outside world in a variety of ways. He can spread himself out to a ridiculous degree, or he can make himself compact, like in this photograph. In this way, Dave has some of the same qualities as a turtle.

Making Biscuits

You may recall that it was mentioned long ago that Dave loves to make biscuits in his spare time. After a long wait, the day when you get to witness this specialty of Dave's has finally arrived.

Getting Along

Dave can be a difficult cat to live with, and Jack usually absorbs the bulk of Dave's sillier antics. But life with Dave is full of relaxing moments too, which is bound to be the case since Dave loves napping so much. Here you can see one such occasion, with the two kitties napping comfortably next to each other. 

Dave wishes you a festive Independence Day

Dave enjoys all holidays, and he is a big fan of America, so he plans to spend the bulk of the day napping.

He suggests you do the same.

Guest Appearance: The Fluff, Volume IV

Here you can see The Fluff enjoying one of his favorite hobbies, reading about current events in the newspaper. This is a hobby that Dave does not often have the opportunity to pursue. He used to have access to newspapers when he lived on the mean streets of Iowa (although he had to steal them from peoples' porches,) but when he transitioned to a domestic life after being "rescued," he lost access to newspapers. 

GREAT WHITE DAVE

Dave is an impressive animal. He has powerful loins, a great sense of smell, and he pursues his goals with reckless abandon. Dave can use his powers to achieve great things, but he can also use them violently. Despite presently enjoying a quiet domestic life, Dave still retains some of his outdoor instincts. This can lead to scenarios where Dave mistakes something innocuous, such as a human foot, for something more sinister. Scenarios like this often result in sudden appearances of GREAT WHITE DAVE. 

Even in the summer

Dave has many developed many strategies over the years to help him cope with the dreadful heat in the summer months. Dave's colleague LeiLei has even adopted one of these strategies. But even so, Dave is not continuously overheated during the summer. Some days, such as on those inexplicable days when a large and loud machine blows cold air onto Dave, he likes to lay under a blanket.
