I love pets and math so I decided that this must be very fun. I love it because my favourite type of math is halfing.

Good one... I'd love to see how a goldfish can escape ;)

Maybe it was raining and they jumped and hop'd through puddles :D

Lame. Add up a few single-digit numbers and divide by four. That's not a teaser--it's not even a math problem. :(
