Choconut, I love you.
Let's sum up the last four years and nine months quickly.
Got you along with Jellybean when she tried to hide with you in the shop. You two didn't really get along but you soon became best friends. You didn't enjoy being picked up to be cuddled and did everything you can to get away, even managing to jump out of a wooden box so I had to reach under a desk to fetch you. You would rather risk life and limb by leaping out of my arms and running around on bark amongst plants when I showed you to my neighbour, and I'm still pretty proud of you for trying to get away from that t**t. What was I thinking? You learned to love being cuddled though, and I tenderly remember the times when we chilled out in the back room watching the world go by. You were so comfortable sitting pretty in my lap that you tried to lie down on your side and nearly fell off my leg. It was cute watching you scale the patio steps and poke inside the door, even cuter when you realised you couldn't get back down so I had to rescue you. Sorry for emotionally scarring you with that lead, but it was pretty funny when you fell over in your bid to get away.
I wish I had spent more time with you last night, but I had to sleep, and you had to as well, and I'm sorry you couldn't wake up like I did this morning. I'm sorry I wasn't with you to make you feel safe. I'm sure Jellybean looked after you though.
We both miss you. Jellybean's gone all emo on me and I've gone all emo on the world. It took you too soon.

Four years and nine months of love, chillaxing on warm, sunny days and snuggling on chilly ones.
Rest in peace, girl. heart
