OSCAR R.I.P.

Fish emotions researcher Dr Richmond Loh describes the lingering death of a pet left behind:

As soon as I left, my parents noticed that oh, Oscar's not eating anymore. Yeah, it was a slow demise.

Whenever I went back to visit Perth to visit my parents and also to visit my fish, he would respond and he would eat and feed, but then I had to leave again, and the fish, he grew a tumour and then he died.

Some people might say oh, that's because of depression and things like that. I'm not sure how true it is, but I definitely do think that my fish knows who I am, yeah.

Loh knew there was a problem and did nothing. Heartless bastard.
