Family Keeps Pet Eel in Bath--for 33 Years
Berlin Tues Jan 7 (Reuters) - A German family has kept an eel in its bathtub for the last 33 years and even trained it to swim into a bucket when someone needs to wash.
"He's part of our family, " said Hannelore Richter of Bochum in western Germany. Her husband Paul caught the eel on a fishing trip in 1969 and took it home for supper.
His children fell in love with the eel, and stopped him from killing and cooking it. Since then it has lived in the bath, shared it with the children when they were small -- and has even moved house with the family, German newspapers reported.

What about this pet?
