I personally don't believe that snakes have emotions, and that said my fiance does. It used to bother me but I really don't care as long as my snake is 'happy' aka healthy, because thats all any animal wild, tame or human really wants. I also agree with gsarjchie that if someone wants to prove that snakes have emotions then they need to have evidence beyond, someone posted this on the internet. Some times it does seem like my snakes are 'enjoying' themselfs, but honestly its just me enjoying a beautiful creature.
