Snakes.
So a friend came up to me today and told me about thier snake.
She got a snake a few months back, a boa constrictor. You know the ones, they really big ones. She was loving having a snake and really really liked it. The snake was very friendly and never ever bit anyone so she just let it slither around the house as it liked. She also let it sleep on the bottom of her bed at night.
The snake was fine it'd just go to sleep as soon as it was put there. She noticed that it was losing weight the other day, and it dropped alot of weight. She was a bit worried so she went to the vets.
She got there and showed the vet her snake and asked what was wrong and if it was ok.
The doctor turned around and said 'I don't know how to tell you this'
'The snake has been starving itself'
'What?! Why?' she said.
'Well snakes starve themselves when they have found a large animal it wants to eat.....it was going to eat you'
She got it put down right there and then, which isn't the most fair thing but I guess at that point you just want it to go away. Fucking hell. Thats scary.
