Ah, I should have remembered calicos were female, so sorry. It's been many years since I've had a cat since family members are allergic. It is a very sweet shot of her by the bird bath.
The Shasta daisies are the tall cultivar, Alaska, but I don't think I'd recommend them because they eventually give off a strong unpleasant odor as they get older. They do look nice with red poppies. At one point I had let them seed across the whole front of the house to cover the daffodil foliage. I've since replaced them with penstemon Husker Red that also seeds nicely, has wonderful red or red tinged foliage and pretty white flowers.
The photo is of Willow helping me replant a herb garden. Not quite a volunteer but I couldn't resist posting the photo.
