I'm sorry, I feel bad for the rats I feed my snake, because I don't like the screeching noise they make, but it has to be done. What else is there to say? "The rat doesn't suffer", I would think if it's a fast death or not, the rat is picked up, thrown in an unknown environment and then attacked by a snake.Originally Posted by frankykeno
May I remind some of you that comments like "don't buy a snake" and "grow a pair" are VERY unproductive to this thread. This member is asking for help to face an issue she's having, not to be scolded and spoken down to. I think she is trying to deal with something she didn't expect to have to deal and yes, though she likely should have known, she didn't. That's the situation at present.
We are here, as a community, to help newcomers so let's do what we do best please. Remember also, when we help someone we help their snake.
Those squeels you hear aren't sighs of relaxation. To say the rat doesn't suffer is only half right. May not suffer when they are caught, but they surely suffer before hand.
So really there's nothing to say except, do it, or get rid of the snake.
