Happy Valentine's Day

FSI, we never had pets in school.  I would have enjoyed that.  I hope you are staying warm.  It's very cold here.  The sun is shining but it's not warming up.

FSI......

.....I don't know how long gerbils are supposed to live, but one of my sons wanted one when he was little.  He had the wheel and everything and fed it himself and not really not knowing whether it was male or female, he named it Mrs. Brown.  He would save his allowance to buy it special treats that looked  like Cheetos.   One morning about two years later he ran downstairs to check on it and feed it and found her dead.  He never got over that and he never wanted another pet.

Gerbils are cool.

Awe, poor little guy. 🐡 No fish come to mind, but I vaguely remember a hamster from my grade school years. My girls had fish, but after a few of them were flushed down the toilet, they gave up on that type of pet. Confused smile
