So, I bought a small aquarium today...
Cathyclysmic and I have been looking forward to adding a couple new additions to the household.

Apparently, we are not as excited as Coleman:



These were taken not even two minutes after I assembled the tank. There aren't even any fish yet (I have to wait for the water to cycle for a couple days).

As of this moment, he is on top of the hutch, awaiting their arrival...

1. I just bought one several weeks ago,
nothing from the cats. Waited a couple of weeks, put the fish in.
Still nothing. Ignored it completely.

It's been a month since the fish went in.

We had a cat who pushed such an aquarium off the table to make it spill so she could eat the poor fish!!!!

Since bird and chipmunk season is almost over, we needed to get a new network running. :D

9. You named your cat after a camping equipment company?
Do the other cats tease him? :P

12. What kind of fish did you get?
Maybe we should have bought a kitty crash cart for when Coleman heart fails from all the excitement.

Want to go to the pet store tonight? :*
