sounds like you wasted a perfect opportunity to train your cat and dog. you should have bit the snakes head off and eaten the first bite, then the cat and dog would know how to handle this situation if it ever arises again. its ok if you feel in awe of my tactical abilities and knowledge in these matters. it took years for me to acquire my skills. I even stayed at a holiday inn. you will get there one day

Sorry, I can't resist: the former biology major is coming out: venomous. Not poisonous. Unless you intend to eat them. And even then, I still don't think they'd do you any harm.

18" isn't very long. What kind of markings did it have?

This is very similar to what it looked like. It had a red tongue, but the end was black. I think it was an Eastern Garter snake, but I'm not for sure. I didn't ask it for any identification .

Thanks for the correction between poisonous and venomous. I knew the difference, but completely spaced it out until you said something.

The opportunity that I really missed, if I had wanted to kill the snake, which obviously I didn't because I was Brave (Dumb) enough to pick it up, was that I had my Glock on me, but was breaking in a new holster and had unloaded the gun, so I wouldn't have any AD/ND.

Cool luke beat me to it, but you could have "Judged" it. Of course you might not see the dog again til next week. Chicken dog!

Good job

I was told(R.I.P. Steve Irwin) that if you pick a snake up by the very end of its tail, its muscles aren't strong enough to snap its head back up to bite your hand.

Yeah, I won't be trying that with poisonous snakes. I'll take a hit from most snakes (actually got tagged by about a 3' ball python in a pet store because my moron friend was dangling a rat).

I'd rather have snakes around than cats. Cats are disgusting animals.

Ya, with all their purring and a litter box full of . And those eye's, Ahhhhhhhh , soooo un-natural.

 

[sepe]

Cats are dirty. I wouldn't own an animal that takes dumps in the house. If you think getting bit by a snake (not poisonous to humans) would be bad, try getting bit by a cat. Don't get the bite taken care of, you're most likely in for a fun ride.

 

[ATOMonkey]

You need a snake stick or two, so you don't have to grab the next one by the tail.

Thanks for the memory flashback. I'm old enough to remember 8-tracks, and I still have one in our old hotrod.

I've been bit by a few snakes. One of them was a Ball Python. Those things hurt.

Dogs are dirtier than cats

Do you not take dumps in the house? I've been bit by cats. Never had a problem.

I've been bitten by more then one kind of snake, hamsters hurt worse. Scratched AND bitten by dogs and cats. Both suck but I tend to get more scars from dogs then from cats. And yes, I take dumps in the house

Agree on hamsters. I thought my finger was gone the last time I got bit by one of those. It did not live long after that.

I don't handle the hamsters unless I have to. I'll play with snakes all day long. Yeah, have fun with THAT.

I'd feed the hamster's to a snake if I wouldn't lose my job.

Murderer!!! How could you do that to poor defenseless hamsters???

AWESOME! what if a ... ahem, customer came in and accidently put a hamster in with a snake and the snake ate it?

 

[ljadayton]

Easy. Same way I fed poor defenseless mice (who really are defenseless compared to a hamster) to my snake. 6 a week. The same snake from the picture She'd tackle a hamster like nothing.

They're all kept locked up so that kind of thing doesn't happen. Though Tuesday I guess someone "lost" a hamster without noticing.....until the fugitive was spotted trying to escape out the front door
