finding nemo? no finding cohen.

Last Thursday I adopted a purple beta fish and named it Cohen. I bought him a typical fish bowl, put blue stones at the bottom and even threw in this little ceramic thing that says shoot for the stars. Thennn yesterday I came home, put my books down and decided to be responsible and feed him his second meal for the day (or maybe first, I can't quite remember if he skipped breakfast). Anyhow as I was approaching my door, when little bear (my gray kitten) prances out while licking his lips with his sandpaper pink tongue. I knew something was up and when I got to Cohen's bowl, there was nothing but water and the decor i had added when I first got him. "Stupid stupiddd cat!" i started yelling at bear and i really wanted to kick him, but didn't. I saw dried splash marks on my mirror and little kitty paw prints starting at the bowl and leading to the door. Eventually I got over it and found a $5 off petsmart coupon, so i figured I'd just buy another one sometime, plus Cohen was bulimic. Yeah, every time I'd feed him he'd eat it and spit it right back up, andd on top of that he didn't move or do anything special. Then today I got a weird sensation to search for this fishy; certainly Bear wouldn't have eaten the whole thing, right? So I looked under my desk, on my desk, under my bed, in my sister's rooms, and the bathroom. BUT then I got this crazy feeling that I should lift up my fish bowl and look under it. Sure enough, there was cohen wiggling for his life. Poor thing was stuck under the ceramic thing. I don't have a clue how I didn't see it before, but i got a stick and moved the thing so he could be set free, and I fed him some food but every time I came near the bowl he started doing back flips and pooping haha! He's so traumatized, but hey! at least he moves and does stuff now. I think part of his fin is missing but thats okay, his brain is smaller than a breadcrumb so he probably doesn't even care. I took him downstairs to show my mom and dad that he was still alive, but then when I had to take him back up to my room he started flipping out so i ran really fast because ever since Ryan told me the story about how his sisters' fishies all jumped out of the bowl and died, I've had this fear that Cohen might attack me while I'm near him. Anyways, little bear didn't eat my fish after all, good thing I didn't kick him. But he did bat him around for a little while. Now for the profound part of this blog haha  you should give everyone the benefit of the doubt because you may not perceive things correctly, even I mistaked little bear for doing something he wasn't guilty of :]
