The very first pet I got was a fish . I was five or six he was a black fish I took very good care of him I was proud to show him off to my family . I even brought my fish to my grandmas house to show it off. I ended up leaving him there because she had a big fish tank that had other fish and I let him play with them . A couple of days later I went to check on him and he was alive he even ate the other fish. Eventually his time ran out and another fish ate him. After that we got a dog but we were never home to take care of it do to school, my parents jobs so we got rid of him . I was sad But my mom was right he was always alone. Now that I am older I got a dog for my children we had him since a pup and he is three years old now.
