... last night our one-eyed fish, Jack took a final trip down the porcelain tank.
I cried a little bit, but Yoshi reminded me that One-eyed Jack lived a lot longer than he would have had I taken him back to the pet store, so shouldn't feel bad that he went bye-bye.
I still felt like a bad fish mom, though. (Sigh)

Moving is always hard on pets. :/
Posted by: Mikey2 at April 17, 2004 09:36 PMDon't feel bad. The important thing is that u treated him well and cared for him. Good bye little fishy!!
