My Fish Looks Sad
A man in Arizona called 911 in a panic, claiming his pet goldfish was acting depressed. He said it was “just floating” and “not responding to his jokes.” He feared it might be a sign of a health emergency—psychological or otherwise—and wanted police to perform a “wellness check.”
The dispatcher tried to explain that goldfish don’t have complex emotional expressions. The man was unconvinced and even played the fish a motivational podcast. Officers arrived, confirmed the fish was… just a fish, and left with an odd story to tell back at the station.
