I have similar problems - Wipe it's b**t and polish it's horns and I'm a happy camper.

And, of course, when you're finished you can ride the rest home.

It's funny that most of those types don't even get that the burger they are eating was once a living creature that somebody had to breed, raise up, send to slaughter and so forth. I swear they think meat just shows up wrapped in plastic on a nice tray at the grocery store.

Haha, that reminds me of a shirt I saw at Hot Topic this past weekend. It said "Meat is murder...yummy yummy murder". I'm thinking about getting it for Jeff even though talking tees are out this year. He doesn't care about that. He just bought one with the Betty Ford Clinic logo on it. :ohmygod:

I agree! I love for mine have a lot of pink inside! ;)

O and Sarah...I am going to go to Hot Topic this weekend to look for that shirt! lol. :giggle:

My girlfriend loves cute furry things; things like rats. So for a while she wasn't too keen on my feeding them whole to my BP. She eventually came around and now very much enjoys watching the snake eat.

The first time she acutally watched, the snake constricted and my girlfriend yelled, "Look, she's hugging it!" Now that's what she always calls it. Whatever makes her feel better I guess. You still won't catch her handling the mouse before hand despite the fact it's already dead.

Heh, well that one will be sure to get you either a lot of glares or giggles! :cool:

I have had similar experiences... When Gabe got sick, some people I'm close to at work knew about it. We were in a luncheon and someone asked me across the table how my snake was doing, and I said he would probably die. A nurse sitting a little further down heard this and said loudly, 'Well good, he should die,' and busted out laughing. That sent me right into tears. My coworkers shot her a dirty look but I just can't get over how cruel people can be. It's like if you don't "get it", that's fine, but have respect for those that do.

Heres my response to this issue..

My snakes are hypoallergenic, small, don't need to be house trained, don't need to be walked or petted. I don't need affection from my pets in order to get along in my day. Lastly regardless of how disturbed by my pets you may be your still curious. It may just be a snake to you but your still interested..

Many of the people that have this opionion that feeding a snake is wrong, dont always understand nature. They dont understand that their cute little kitty also plays a roll in the food chain. If there dog was out in the wild it would not be served kibbles n' bits in a pink bowl with its name on it. If one would actually see what there natarual diet is they wouldnt worry so much about my 4 foot snake's diet is.

I happen two own a golden retriever, she is wonderful. Always at my feet whenever she can be. with a big personality. But alot of the cuteness goes away when another dog comes around that she doesnt like. And she will crap every where exept where she is suppose to. that being said, If any one said that my snake didnt have personality, I would be enclined to break their face. My BP may not wag his tail when he sees me. He wont bark at intruders. but until you see his interacion with his own enviroment you wouldnt know unless you have reptiles your self.

Now I have said my piece. Tonight I will stop at the grocrey store and Pick up a big fat juicy tri-tip, some marinade, and a 12 pack of beer. BiG~PUN is BBQing TONIGHT! :taz: :carrot: :partyon: :pinkele: :beer: :beer:

:2cent:

BBQ Rules! :rockon: :sunny:
