thank you both ... Yeah, Im kind of tired of the disrespect these animals get, so i decided to reinform my english honours class . My buds have told their folks they held my snake and some of my fav responses were
"whats wrong with her parents"
" you better have washed your hands, you'll get a disease"
A few of my friends werent allowed to come over when i first got him. Just shows the ignorance of some people. Im glad my parents are so supportive and can respect all my misunderstood animals. ( they dont like them that much either). The most rewarding thing of all of it though, is when i tell my parents all this info, and its like they aren't listening. But then when another adult questions their sanity, they replay the information i have given them, defend my beasts and reinform people with correct information. My two little cousins are no longer afraid of spiders, and scorpions and snakes. Pretty happy, they are going to grow up with an equal respect to all living things.
