Ah. I had a witty comment all ready to go about how much my groceries love me... and then I realized I misread your comment.
But, with that, I will say that I am happy to force my snakes to spend time with me. And I love them. And like the creepy one-sided romance that it is, that's enough for me.

I was on the verge of understanding your comment before you changed it. I took it that groceries = grocery stores..then I thought about small grocery stores in very small towns...they would depend on you to live thus possibly have some love for you. Luckily you changed it before my head exploded out of confusion
I Gots Me Some Snakes...

If that's all it takes for your head to explode, I have some bad news for you...!

I open it, and sit on the floor, and they come and get on my lap! When I take them outside for a "slith", they follow me around the yard. And, after they atre outside for awhile, they enjoy a drink out of the hose! My youngest gives me kisses when I ask him too, and he loves to get wrapped in a towel and a warm blanket when hes through with his bath. I lotion them up with a mild non scented lotion about 3 times a week, and they have the most beautiful flawless "coats" youve ever seen. They stretch out as far as they can to reach me when I put them on the bed...its so cute! Is any of this normal behavior for a Python? My motto is "If you dont treat them like a snake...they wont be one!"(not that theres anything wrongf with that!)

Needing vs Feeling emotions
Maybe it isnt that we as humans attribute human emotions to animals, so much as animals attribute mammalian emotions to us! They do seem to understand what we are saying, and sometimes, it seems, thinking, in alot of cases. Maybe we are just acting instictually, and the oldest of the brains...The Reptilian Brain...knows this, as well as the outcome. Therefore, their reactions are quick and simplified. That doesnt mean, however, that they dont feel emotions. It just means that they dont need emotions.

However, the animal park received backlash from the public, who claimed the heartwarming story was merely fabricated for commercial purposes.

A simple cellphone can capture video and post it to youtube to show and disprove everyone! Rather then a silly article.
And as for putting lotion them WHAT who advised or where did you read this should ever happen! Thats like me shampoo'ing my dog on a daily basis, putting Hair styling gel in there fur, and painting there toe nails. ALL which are bad for the animal.
Id advise against lotion on the snake LOL
