In memory of Leelee

To our lovely boy who recently passed away. Your bright eyes no long light our day or night whether scornful, playful or loving. We thank you for the trust you showed in us when we were two strangers who would stop and pet you and talk to you when you were on the street. Thank you for choosing us in your hour of need and then choosing to stay with us when you were better. Thank you for the ten years of love, annoyance, laughter and support. We love you and always will, we felt your love every single second of the day and we will continue to do so. Thank you for the bites of love and annoyance even the kill bites when you meant it. Thank you for the scratches when your belly was a no go zone or your hisses of anger when you wanted to stay up. Thank you Lovely (aka Leelee). Leelee. Meaning. CheeChee. Some might say we rescued you, but you rescued me. You spent day after day with me exploring your new territory and you were brave when we moved house and got a brighter and bigger garden. Leelee, thank you for making every day of the past 10 years full of joy and love and support. I wouldn't have made it without you. We will never forget you and we hope you are now chasing your tail again. Our bond was precious. Love you so much my baby Leelee.
