Pets = Fish
In my lifetime, I haven't had much luck with pets. When I was young we had birds- and the birds committed suicide. No joke. We had fish and they wouldn't last more than 2 weeks. We had a dog who had too much energy for our home. We gave her to a farm and she is the perfect sheep herder! Then when I was at college, my family got a new dog--my sister is in love with the monster. The dog is yappy and poops in the house....gross. I can't handle it.
Anyway, when Tim and I got married, Tim really wanted pets...and we don't live in a place that allows pets. So, we got fish.
I warned Tim that I have not had good luck with fish. Two weeks at the most people. He told me that he would counter act my bad luck. So, we bout 4 fish. I named them, and they died on the 14th day we had them. The two week curse.
Tim was determined; so, we got more fish. This time I didn't name them. I do not touch the tank. I call them Tim's fish. I even try not to look at the tank for long periods of time, and the fish have lived my friends! Hopefully they will continue to live for a long time!
I always think of the movie Jungle 2 Jungle when Mimi eats the prize winning fish and then replaces them was trout! It's an oldie but a goodie.
