How can i humanely euthanize my goldfish?
can i freeze her in the refridgerator? i dont enjoy clove oil or vodka, so any other path to euthanize her would be appreciated. thanks.
Answers: Your fish would suffocate beforehand it froze. I'm sorry to have to pass you the gory details, but the fastest and most modernized method I ever found for destroying a fish was to place them surrounded by a plastic bag, swing it, and hit the rucksack on a countertop as hard as I could. Basically, it fractures the skull, separates the spinal cord, and kill the fish instantly. You can put a paper pod over the plastic bag so you can't see it.
I know this sounds awful, but I manage a pet store for 8 years and this was more humane than letting a fish suffer a slow destruction. I would not recommend flushing it or trying to put vodka in water- the fish will surface the chlorine/alcohol in its gills and that burns. The toilet will also bludgeon it to departure.
This is my experience. I hope I haven't upset you too much...
EDIT: Well, the fish spared you the decision. Thank her when you bury her. I enjoy buried fish in my flowerbeds. They are angelic for the soil and then I can reflect about them when I see the flowers blooming. Sorry for your loss...
you can put them within a cup of vodka and that stuns them and they die
