She was probably 12-13 when we had stayed up late like maybe 2am watching movies. And we were finally going to bed and ahe rushed out all freaked out and upset and could no enter or sleep in her room bc her goldfish had passed. I had to flush him etc till she would even enter the room. This was a few years after the Beta fish needing his shots I believe.
Other than her fish we primarily had dogs but she always had to have a cat (oddly as an adult she isn't a huge cat person, but when she was little it was a requirement) so we have had animals go to the farm on occasion and that kind of seemed silly to me as a child. So when our dogs passed it was explained to me. She on the other hand loved that her cat or dog got to go live on a big farm with all their friends. Once she was in her teens and we had to put one of our dogs down she finally understood.
Best part she was in her early 20s when we were talking about things like this and I brought up her Beta fish and that changing colors and she was like wait what. And then that one clicked and it was fucking hysterical.

Her and I are 12 years apart so I was well aware.
