1 – Serpent Day
1 Feb 2023 10:26 pmHow do you feel about snakes?
I think they're beautiful. I've been wrapped by a 6-foot python in Thailand (some passing Indian tourists were appalled), and at the Snake Temple in Penang, in Malaysia had hundreds of tiny snakes crawling on me. It was slightly ticklish. None of the snakes were slimy, but dry, warm, and pleasant to the touch.
Would you ever keep a snake as a pet?
There are no snakes in Aotearoa NZ, even in zoos, so I couldn't anyway, but no, I wouldn't. No pets that need live food for me. I did meet a guy in London who had one. He said it seemed to cuddle up to him, but it was really only for warmth.
(Servalan icon because she's the closest I have to a snake.)
