I seriously doubt any local SPCA would ever do any such thing
Sorry Bev. It really did happen. They came to our dorm, asked for us by name and located my friend who was so shocked that he decided to just give the fish up. When I returned to the dorm and found out about it, I was shaking my head disbelieving that they would actually do that. Since I wasn't there, they didn't enter my room and so were unable to take mine.

Like I said, it was the funniest thing and its a story that I keep telling people over and over at parties when I want to talk about stupid events. It's just a fish and unless they were going to charge me in court, I wouldn't have let them take the fish if they did find me in the dorm that day.
