Cio Cio San, the Cat of the Day
Name: Cio Cio San
Age: Three years old
Gender: Female
Kind: Domestic Medium Hair
Home: Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
 
   Cio Cio San is a very special young lady. She was adopted from an Animal Shelter and immediately settled into her new home with her brother Chaz and sister CeCe. She is a tiny girl, all of six pounds fully grown, but she is undoubtedly the best sister/mom any cat could have. Cio Cio takes it upon herself to groom her siblings regularly, and never forgets to include her human "mom." She is an incredibly polite cat with impeccable manners.

    Cio Cio San welcomed a fourth kitty to the feline family with all of her motherly warmth and kindness. Little "Coda" was adopted at two months of age, and Cio Cio immediately started looking after him as if he were her own kitten. She was the gentlest mom and because Coda hadn't been weaned for very long before being adopted, he began to snuggle in and nurse on his new mom. Cio Cio had nothing to offer in terms of milk, but never turned Coda away. He found comfort in snuggling close with Cio Cio and she took great pleasure in grooming him from head to toe and wrapping herself around him when they slept to keep him cozy and comfy.

    Miss Cio Cio is the only one of her feline siblings to come and say goodnight each evening. She hops up on the bed, snuggles in under her human mom's neck, purrs and chatters for a bit and then quietly goes to sleep in her own bed after her mom has fallen asleep. She's a very sweet little girl!
