Oh yes! But by the time she bought that rose, I had figured out that she was stealing (she had already stolen some meds from me earlier that week), so the trick didn't work. But I was evil enough to plant the rose right outside the door (we share the house - so the outer door is the same, but of course we have our own doors that we can lock too), so she had to watch it every time she passed it. :onfire: And to my great joy, the plant survived the winter too (it's supposed to be a in-door-plant), so it could annoy her one more year. :evil:

Well, I'm really happy she finally has gotten help. She has now admitted to me that she has a problem, and I was very happy to hear her say that, as I didn't know she knew that she really has a problem. I guess it helped calling her doctor when I found out she was stealing. I really hope she will get better. She's only been there for a week yet, so she has a long way to go. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for her.

I hope rehab does your neighbor lots of good!
But I'm so sorry about Huffelpuff, that is so terrible. At least you gave him a great life.

I'm so sorry to hear about huffpuff. :( I had something similar happen recently but with rosies. I went to bed, everything was fine and woke up to 2 dead rosies. Checked the water and it was fine, no other fish died just the 2 rosies. I still don't know what happened. It was the weirdest thing. Sometimes we just don't know and never will.

ouch! That must suck! I sympathize and feel for you. I hope your future puffers are not going to have such a grim fate.
