Her name was Cio Cio San, Cio for short. She was named for the main character in the opera by Puccini, Madame Butterfly. Cio lived with Susan since August 12, 1986 and adopted Joe in 1992 almost immediately on meeting him. Her favorite thing was taking naps on my people's laps or on the waterbed. She also liked helping Joe work on his computer! She never did like Max, no matter how hard he tried to be her friend; She would hiss whenever she saw him. Cio was stuborn, bossy, cute, and affectionate. She will be greatly missed. Good-bye Cio, we love and miss you.
