Character Information
|
Daisy the Donkey is a recurring fictional character in The Amazing World of Gumball. She is a pink and yellow stuffed donkey that was first shown as a character of the Daisy the Donkey Show in "The Responsible." She seems to be a very popular character in the series, seeing as she even has her own cereal and a theme park based on her. Anais in particular seems to be obsessed with her, even more so in the early seasons.
Appearance
Daisy is a pink donkey with a yellow muzzle, hands, and feet. In season 1, she has white sparkles in her pupils, though they have been removed and her eye color changed to purple since season 2.
