If you cats are bored with your pet goldfish, you might take a lesson from these guys. Kyle and Dean Pomerleau are on to something — they’ve taught football to a fish! The two are quickly gaining fame after they have taught a fantail goldfish not only how to play football, but also soccer and how to “dance” the limbo. On their website, which includes videos of their fishes’ fiascos, they sell an e-book and even a training kit to teach your fish these amazing tricks! Supposedly, their technique works for Bettas, Goldfish, Oscars, Parrot Cichlids and other fish too.
Here are some tricks that Catnabbit! suggests you try teaching your pet fish:
Operate a tiny can-opener
Dangle a piece of string
Leap fearlessly into your mouth
Float upside down (”Play Dead”)
Sing “Under the Sea” in the Key of Z flat
Demi-pliés for a part in Swan Lake
Thanks to Madame Blackjack for the tip!
