Petsitting advice from a nine-year-old

Jack: Dad, how long are we dogsitting Hannah?
Me: Until Tuesday.
Jack: Dad, if our betta fish Penny dies before Tuesday, can we feed it to Hannah? I mean, would it be appropriate to let Hannah eat Penny if Penny dies while Hannah's staying with us?
Me: Emily Post is silent on that one, Jack. What do you think?
Jack: I think we should check and see if Penny's about to die.
