Poor, poor Hubert.

Oh my word this poor fish. He is breaking my heart. I was sitting on the couch when I noticed that Hubert was moving frantically. He lost his top fin! He can only swim back and forth a little bit, he can't make it anywhere in the water.


I never thought I was attached to this fish, but my stomach right now is tied up into some serious knots now while watching him. He's so frantic, it's getting worse by the minute. I told my mom, and she said to flush him. I can't!

He's my second pet (third if you count Herman from camp), and after the brutal murder of Fredrick I can't bare to kill another one. I don't want him to suffer, but I don't want to be the one that ends his life.

If you think you can take it, this is a clip of Hubert trying to swim. It will break your heart if you know Hubert at all. He's had the longest life of any fish ever, but I'm not ready to see him go to briny deep yet.
