giving a fish...as a gift...
so every morning i get up and feed my new pet fish tsunami
sarah decided to get me a fish for a 2hr drive back home last saturday. not fun. but now that i have it home, im wondering about whether or not its a good idea as a gift. I mean, the last time i had a fish i was like 5 years old.
this one is a beta fish that does look kinda cool...and i will try not to kill it...but what happens when i go on vacation? just give it to a friend to feed?
tsunami is lookin at me now and he watches me when i study or play poker and he mayb e good luck but i dont know yet...overall im happy with him and i like it, but...
my main question is:
is it a good idea to give a living creature as a gift to somebody who does not expect to get it?? (ASSUMING you are not related to the person/live with them...like a dad buying a surprise puppy for his son/daughter does not count...we're talking about giving something thats alive to another person you dont live with)
