Quincy Resident of the Month Our resident for the month of January is Professor Kokomo. He is a beautiful Siamese cat whose coat is tan in color with highlights of black and brown around his eyes and nose. He eats well-balanced meals with just a touch of flavor complements of the Bickford Chefs. He's treated so well here, he stays on. He is quiet and well-behaved. His favorite places to hang out are in the windows of his apartment so he can scout out what is going on in the field behind.
