Awww..such warming stories of favorite pets...
Unfortunately, I was never allowed to have any furried friends nor any kind of pet as a child. However, I do have a pet story to tell.
Last year at around this time, my colleague and I were teaching a group of kindergarten kids about fish, oceans, etc. We decided it would be great if we could get two goldfish for the class. Of course the kids loved them, but so did I! :p
One morning I came in and found one of them belly up! *gasp* I was pretty devastated, and from then on, I took home the remaining fish every weekend to ensure its safety. Well, the school year came to a close and I took the fish home for the summer. I grew to love and care for that fish even more (and so did my 2 year old nephew) and by the time September rolled along, I decided to "keep" the fish at home. :hide:
To this day, almost a year later, the fish is still doing great but my only problem is that I have not yet named him/her. (How can you tell?) I've attached a pic in case anyone has any ideas.
