How cruel is this my poor snake :(

[Molly75]

Hi All
Ok as i type this I'm sick to my stomach now heres the background around 8 months ago a fox snake hatchling got loose yep it happens to us all at some time

Anyway to cut a long story short I get a call at work today its my last day being made redundant today and i get my other halfs sister on my phone shouting at me like a nutter saying shes found a snake in the kitchen if you don't like them i can understand but what does she say I'm going to smash it with a saucepan i had to get home in record time to stop her luckily my snake managed to get under the washing machine but she would've killed her.

now my blood is boiling she's only in my house looking after the otherhalfs mother and she's trying to kill my pets

I get home crying my eyes out to find a very weak hatchling under the washing machine shes had a meal and is drinking like crazy but in this day and age why are people so cruel these are my babies i don't have kids how would she like it if i let myself in to her house and beat her kids to death

and the sadest part this woman is a teacher!!!!! i thought they knew better so sick of it I'm leaving can't have my babies treated like this

Ps please send luck to my weak lil baby shes had a meal so fingers crossed
thanks for reading p xxx

TBH i wouldnt have fed her, Reptoboost or Avipro for a week would have been a better option first, its organs may get overloaded and cause shock to set in, especially if the gut flora has died off, which after 8 months is probable!!!!

As for the other bit, she'd never be allowed in my house again, my other half would have got a mouthfull about his sister, and i'd have probably evicted her(with my boot up her arse)and her obnoxious mother so she can have a turn having her in her OWN home.
Yes i have read your other post/s, you have my sympathy hun.

Great to hear you found your lil baby, dont know what id do if i lost one of mine. Really hope she ok and picks up soon.
As for someone threatening to do that to one of my animals they wouldnt know whats hit them, definitley wouldnt have them back in the house again.
Best wishes

thats awful, i feel bad for you, my mum says shes hurt my snake if it eats her cats, not that it can at this size. i would have kicked her out of the house post hast, i dont care who she thinks owns the house!!

I would have killed anyone who tried to hurt one of my animals. Poor you, you must be devastated!! Fingers crossed for your wee snake x

Reptoboost is a better one, has avipro in, has lectades in, and emergency food (like Critical Care), BUT the gut flora takes a week to repopulate, Any further load can cause organ shut down to progress even faster, thus bringing on shock.

If someone threatened my animals, id knock them out without contemplation, as some people would if it was their own kids. (im the unusual 1% of 20 year olds in UK that DOESNT have kids yet!lol)
Essentially, if they touched my animals in such a way i would end up coming at them with fists. its not something i could take lightly.
Anywho, i would hope to put her straight on a large number of things. and i certainly wouldnt allow her in the house again.

She obviously isnt even considering your feelings.
To me thats nothing but vindictive, vicious behaviour. Its not fair, its not clever and i would expect a teacher to have a high enough IQ to be able to accept that they mean a great deal to you.
She had options, she could have FUCKED out the house until the problem was resolved.
Its not as if you go chasing a burglar with a frying pan if your scared of em. You put yourself at more risk.
Seems a bit dumb if your scared of something to go chasing it with a pan.

I take it teachers arent taught empathy and understanding

Sorry, but it really concerns me gravely when people have such nasty beleifs on animals.

i know of people that have killed becasue of a similar situation. I kindly and calmly went to that guys house and knocked the B*^& out.. i still feel sick in my stomach thinking about his actions.
Maybe these are the people we should stick in boxes and poke with sticks? anyone else up for that?
