stitch's bowl
Actually I thought about that while I was walking from the store after having purchased the bowl. I wondered if maybe it was too small for stitch and I wondered if I should release him into a river so that he can be happy. I thought about a life trapped in a bowl, solitary with no other species of your kind, no family, no friends , no one else like you, no one to communicate with, no one to love. And then I considered this world and people in it and how some of us actually put ourselves in that small bowl and never leave to explore the huge world, we are always trapped in the confines of our home or within five miles of our neighborhood. However unfortunately for stitch he has no choice and I feel extreme guilt for keeping him in there, but I do not know if river conditions are suitable for him.

About Stitch's bowl....Yes, it is a rather guilty feeling having a pet locked up in a bowl...but think of him in the store..where the associates do not really care as much as we do if they live or die. i once was in walmart trying to get a fish and this one little fish fell on the floor and was flipping up and down trying to get back to water. i went through great pains to pick the fish back up only to have the associate take the fish and throw him down the sink because she said that he would die anyway. the poor fish was still alive. now i would rather that they lived in my little bowl than in the store where they were never given a chance to have a personality....every soul deserves a chance to shine...at least once. so stitch...no matter how long he lives, he will have personality and that is what matters to me...even though he may be in a bowl, he is given attention by 5 people who care if he lives and if he eats...yes, there are things that look up for stitch...and you can say it is only a fish...but really now, his body is little but his soul is as big as mine...by the way, this was replying to a previous comment by someone...
me woulda punch associate!
