November 2, 2010 My girl
Our lives were recently turned upside-down at the passing of our beloved pet, our bunny Mallory.
We got her when she was just a tiny ball of fluff. She fit neatly into the palm of our hand and spent the next 8 months living in a tiny bedroom with the two of us. She slept on our pillow and chewed through more wires than I can count.
We thought she might be lonely with us gone all day, so we got her a boyfriend. She didn’t like him much at first, but through sheer forced proximity they became quickly attached.
We had her for 7 years, during which time she got rounder, braver, and sweeter. She was curious about everything and an expert at sneaking behind our backs into places she wasn’t allowed to go. She was bossy and would headbutt us whenever she wasn’t satisfied. She would do just about anything for a treat. We miss watching television with her perched on the couch with us; sharing bites of apples and crackers; long pets and ticklish bunny kisses. We aren’t religious or spiritual but if there is a heaven, I hope it’s for bunnies.
Love you Mallory.

Love you Mallory bunny-butt. You nibbled on carrots greens in the most adorable fashion. I don’t know about heaven either, but if Yoshimi and Grigio are up in Kitty Heaven meowing and purring up a storm, I bet there’s a place for bunnies to chew through wires safely and bounce through fields of carrot greens.
