Spongebob
We got a Japanese Fighting Fish (Beta Fish) named Spongebob in October of 2006 and he is still kicking as if time hasn't even gone by. I swear he is the fish that won't die sometimes... just amazes me that my friends have beta fish and they all die within the first few weeks... I think mine might be immortal or something.
We did get 2 fish that day but poor Squidward was sooo sick when we got him that he didn't make it past March of 2007. He is sadly still missed.
Sneakers
On November 5th of 2007 we acquired my big sookie baby. Since I had won a bet that I could keep my fish alive for a year, I could get a cat. We went looking for a cat and came home calling a number from a free pet sign and ended up with our puppy Sneakers. She was named Sneakers because her legs are black but her feet are white, but IMO she earned if because she sneaks around and tries to get away with everything (and she does...she's sooo spoiled).
