and while it's a cutie, it's not supposed to be there. my landlord would KILL me if he knew we had animals in the house.

she's asperger's, so she's to-the-letter. i told her she's not allowed to bring that big plastic box in with the snake...so now the darned thing is slithering across the carpet.

*sighs*

so...the question is...

where do you draw the line on pets?

well I would say it's a pet if it's loved and kept with you. But how much mess does a snake make?

it's NOT a freaking pet!

she caught it the day before yesterday. how you can find snakes in the backyard with less than two inches of grass in the middle of town...i dunno.

snakes aren't messy.

noway noway Once when my son was about 4 he came running to tell me there was a big spider in his room. So here I go thinking awwww no biggie spiders don't freak me out I will just kill it.....

Well got in his room and he pointed it went under the bed no problem I will get the broom and hit it first wack and it will be dead... Went and got the broom and got on my knees to see this spider that was freaking my son out.

WEll ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh **** I was looking face to face at a Big azz Tarantula instead shshsh have no clue where it had come in the house at....... after killing it for hey a spider is one thing but now I get the hibbie jibbies when it comes to tarantula's. I got the caulk gun out and plugged every hole I could find....

Snakes are like dating,
Catch em, have some fun, then release.

exactly.

i'm trying to get her to understand that her living room isn't fair to the snake.

it's a cutie...we have pictures of everyone passing it around...but it's still not fair.

i'd never kill it.

i've also got video of all of us holding the most amazing tarantula a few weeks ago.

they aren't messy and don't make noise...so I don't see a problem with keeping it

oh I see...ok. well just tell her that a snake should be free where he is happy.

i have a no-pet clause in my lease. however, my landlord did say that he doesn't count fish and such as pets. snakes make even less mess...and since it's only a little garden snake, it'd only require insects to feed.

however, i really feel that a pet-ownership relationship should be beneficial to both, and fair to both.

i looove me some cats. cats are independent, and i don't have to be all nurturing all the time. i also don't have to walk them.

birds and dogs are too noisy.

even if you knew it wasn't poisonous and it's bite might feel like an ant? seriously, this little sucker isn't likely to harm a flea.
