I've often wondered if pythons have any kind...Wow. I've often wondered if pythons have any kind of venom they inject that anaesthetises their victims. It must have had a big mouth, and as you say it must have been very quick to swallow whole, a cat who one would imagine would kick up a huge stink about being swallowed by a snake. <BR/><BR/>I had some friends on the northcoast of NSW who had a pet carpet python who used to hang around the rafters of their house. One night Dad awoke to the blood curdling screams of one brother as the other brother (who was about three) had been dragged down his bed by the snake who using the rafters as an anchor had him by the foot. There was much yelling and more screaming and panicking and the snake was finally wrestled off. The boys didn't want the snake destroyed but I think all agreed to re-house him. Clearly they were'nt feeding him enough,indeed I don't think they were feeding him at all, so there's a lesson in there if you're going to tolerate a boa constrictor hanging around your house and you have small children--keep the cats up to them. (er. . . sorry 'bout that)<BR/><BR/>That is sad about Sam, but there is some sort of justice, some sort of enduring symbolism in his end. Better than being run over. Cat karma I'd say.Linkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12346948772651971988noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1899193538457209754.post-2736322564528047602008-01-07T01:41:00.000+11:002008-01-07T01:41:00.000+11:00Oh dear :( The thought of that does leave a funny ...Oh dear :( The thought of that does leave a funny feeling in the it of your stomach :((<BR/><BR/>Elle from Domesticated Bloggage<BR/>(who has forgotten her log in password and needs to sort out getting another one!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1899193538457209754.post-18919353208732974672008-01-06T19:45:00.000+11:002008-01-06T19:45:00.000+11:00Thank you very much for your thoughts and comments...Thank you very much for your thoughts and comments. i really appreciate that.<BR/>Cyalayta<BR/>Mal :)Mal Kiely [Lancelots Pram]https://www.blogger.com/profile/09550832509641597913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1899193538457209754.post-20604363108342505872008-01-05T12:40:00.000+11:002008-01-05T12:40:00.000+11:00wow! my mom always tells the story of when my sis...wow! my mom always tells the story of when my sisters pet tarantula got out of its cage and into the heating ducts... we moved!<BR/><BR/>happy new year to you (and if you wondered... i came here via Caroline's)Dak-Indhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11922284439644261724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1899193538457209754.post-82344191504380577212008-01-05T12:33:00.000+11:002008-01-05T12:33:00.000+11:00OMG!
