History: (Avengers VI#11) - A Farnum and Daly Circus truck crashed in New York City, causing the animals within their truck to escape and run wild in crosstown traffic. Upon seeing the animals, Wasp asked who would drive live animals through crosstown traffic and Spider-Man replied someone who would called their circus "Farnum and Daily" before he suggested Farnum and Daly crashed because they were in a car chase with trademark lawyers. Noticing no bystanders had been injured yet, Spider-Man and Wasp jumped down to help herd the wild animals and after successfully herding the animals back into the Farnum and Daly truck, Spider-Man webbed up the truck's door to hold the animals.

Comments: Created by Mark Waid and Mike del Mundo.

The Farnum and Daly Circus likely got its name from the popular real-life circus, Barnum & Bailey.

"Kitty"

"Kitty" was a lion utilized at the Farnum and Daly Circus. When the Circus truck crashed, "Kitty" escaped and ran amok, attacking the heroic Wasp, only to be shrunk down by Wasp's Pym Particles. "Kitty" was then placed back into the Farnum and Daly Circus truck.
