It is with great sadness I announce the death this morning of Mel, the 3 ft Savannah Monitor that has been living in our basement. J is so upset. We buried him in the front yard.

I'm not going to lie. I wasn't thrilled with him living in the basement, but he was still cool. The neighborhood kids thought we had an alligator down there. He'd sun himself by the back door. He was pretty awesome, all in all.

So. Bye Mel. *sniff*

I'm sorry, he looks really beautiful. And just remember, he's with Steve Irwin now, who you know is loving him as much as he loved his own animals.

Oh, honey. Sending J some serious hugs on that. I'm really sorry for him. I know he loved Mel to pieces.

He felt horrible about it, poor guy. It'll be weird not having him in the basement anymore :(

I can only imagine. I mean, he loved Mel. Is he going to get another critter, to help ease the transition, or just keep the ones you have for now?

I hope to god he doesn't want another critter. It's kinda nice having the basement free! I'm afraid he's going to use this to talk me into another dog, though *will be firm*

No more dogs. Or critters. You have a full house. Two cats, two dogs, a rabbit..am I forgetting anything? That's plenty enough. Tell him if he wants anything else, it has to be the size of a hamster or smaller. *grins*

No clue... just found him lying there. His little heart just gave out, I guess :(

Oh sweetie, I'm sorry to hear about that loss. I know he meant a lot to you guys...

Maybe arrangements could be made to adopt another in time for Christmas? That'd make a pretty sweet present for someone whose name starts with J and ends with...I don't know what. ;)

I'm so sorry- it's always hard losing a pet. He did indeed look like a very slick lizard.

Oh. Ok, that makes sense. I had this image in my head of you going downstairs one day and finding it there.
