Kao K’o-Kung

General
"Kao K’o-Kung" is the full name of the Siamese cat who is almost always referred to as "Koko". He is named after a 13th-century Chinese artist of the same name, also known as Gao Kegong, and was formerly owned by Fluxion art critic George Bonifield Mountclemens III, who was highly fond of cats. Mountclemens claimed that the cat "...himself has the dignity and grace of Chinese art." He fed Koko a gourmet diet of lobster, chicken and many other high-class meals. Koko will not accept normal cat food, leaving Qwilleran to provide for his expensive diet.

Appearance
He has the appearance of a prize winning show-cat and an obstinate attitude toward anything he does not like. He often goes out of his way to annoy or embarrass female humans he does not approve of. He also has a habit of watching birds and knocking books off shelves, and these books are normally read to the cats by Qwilleran. Though it would seem he would be able to do fine on his own, when Qwill had to go to work, Koko became lonely and this led to Qwill to get Yum-Yum. Of course, because Koko eats food like salmon and crab, Yum-Yum had the privilege of eating this food as well. Qwilleran always feeds them such meals throughout the series.
