Our years together have been well spent. The day Heather and I picked you out at Petsmart on Redwood road was a magical day. I had finally won the battle with my parents of a "cooler" pet than a goldfish and you my friend were that cool pet.
We named you Mr. Chunkars due to the fact of your frog obesity problem. You lived up to your name until the final days of your life. Your bright orange belly and bright green skin always brightened my day. The way you gobbled up a cricket never ceased to amaze me, I can never even catch them in my hands let alone my mouth!
My deepest apologies for leaving you with Heather to take care of you, I realize she didn't change your water nearly enough or give you as many crickets as I gave you, but I had to take wing and go to college. Sorry.
I hate to say this but out of necessity for your housemate, Smee, you had to be replaced. We chose an equally fat fire bellied toad who we lovingly call FattyPants. No worries dear Chunkars, you will always hold a very special place in my heart. Thanks for being the hoppy little toad you were!
Enjoy your life in toad land, eat as many crickets as you would like and swim in all the ever clean water you can find!

Jenny, I am so sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you during this difficult time.
Mr. Chunkars did more in death than in life for his good cage mate Smee. Heather actually changes the water now.
Jenny, I am so sad that Mr. Chunkars left us in this earth life. But don't worry we will see him again.
I am glad that you are expressing your feeling this way by blogging. HOWEVER...I am sad that there has been no obituary posted for the passing of Mikey, Dill, Michael, Mr. Dill, and Mike.
