So I stumbled across
this and the official site
here.
Now to me it sounds like an elaborate joke... renaming 'fish' to 'sea kittens', honestly where does that come from? Aren't they fine as is? Renaming fish to something that people like the name of isn't going to work, because people; they like fish because of how they
look amirite? And this is all ignoring how amazing the word fish is, especially if said correct. Not to forget ghoti in the list of amazing fish pronunciations too.
Now I think this Ashley Byrne gets points for being in charge of the 'sea kitten' campaign but always referring to them as fish.
But you should check out the site, if just for laughs. You can adopt and dress up your own fish and even read some fish themed bed time stories, which are not very uplifting but kind of horrific. (A fish who wants revenge on a 'land kitten', is nightmare material folks) I even adopted my own little fish pal, have three in a tank and played with them in lab all day. One more shouldn't be too bad. :D
Needless to say; I'm not calling my gold fish gold sea kittens any time soon. D: What happens when people feed their fish cat food though? "It's called a 'sea kitten' that means it eats the same things as 'land kittens' right?"
