Because we needed more little things that poop over here, we added two more to our band of merry men. Meet Jack and Toothless, our goldfish. (Toothless is named after the dragon in How to Train Your Dragon and Jack is named after Jack. Jack came up with both names. He consistently switches which one is which.)
We got the fish Friday evening, and I am shocked they are still alive. They made a treacherous journey back from the pet store in Jack's hands the entire drive. It was only a fifteen minute drive, but I had visions of shaken, dead fish at the end.
There have also been a lot of questions about what to feed them, how much to feed them and how to play with them. As you can see above, while edamame is not appropriate fish food, Jack is such a great guy he wants to share anyway. Also, we have had numerous conversations about how the fish must stay in their habitat, they cannot come out of their habitat, there can be no direct touching of the fish, and did I mention they cannot breathe out of water?
Oh yes, and watching them poop is fascinating. Ahh, bodily functions.
