Ferris the Fish

Bear's beloved fish died today. He was a strange fish, often laying on the plant in his tank (on his side) sleeping. We spent most days walking past and tapping the tank to make sure he was alive. Everyday he proved that he was in fact sleeping. But alas today he did not move. Because of his previous behavior it was rather difficult to convince Bear that he was actually dead. When she finally accepted his fate she and Daddy went out and laid him to rest in a nice plot in the backyard. It was a sweet ceremony and he will be dearly missed.
