    i have 2 cats of the same type. they are the most beautiful cats i have ever seen and my mum told me their breed is banned from beauty contests coz they would win everytime. i don't know the name of their breed though but they are long hairs. my older cat is one of the biggest house cats i've seen and she's kinda bitchy. she hisses when she sees white males and she makes them bleed sometimes. my younger cat is so funny sometimes. she stands on top of open doors like she's a skulk. she gets up there by jumping from nearby furniture but one time i did see her try to get up there from the floor but she didn't make it; her front claws got to the top but then she fell back down. my bitchy cat used to hiss at her when she was a kitten and smack her in the face but now she lets her lick her head but she won't return the licking coz she kinda wants to make her her bch or something. my cats chase each other around the house at night and the persian carpets get upturned. they like to use the carpets as their scratching posts too unfortunately. sometimes i throw a flannel at my young cat when she's sitting and not paying attention so i can watch her jump, it's so funny. she jumps about 4 feet high when she's startled.

    btw i have some advice for cat owners that i learned from experimenting on my cats. if you want a cat to leave a room all you have to do is point an anti-perspirant deodorant can at them. you just have to spray it in their general direction once in their life and then for the rest of their life they just have to see the can pointed at them and they will run the hell out of there. both my cats reacted exactly the same. it's a cat thing it seems. try it. a lighter will not be necessary.

    btw i bet my bitchy cat can take on your snake.

    She's a cheeky little bugger and a lot bigger now (that was taken like a year ago).
    Still cute though.

    My grade 3 teacher had snakes, forgot which kind, around 10 gerbils, big fish aquarium, firebelly toads, salamanders, spiders, in her classroom, it was pretty much a minni zoo.

    I like brown tree snakes, there patterns are so cool. The only snakes around here, are dinky garder snakes and rattlesnakes.

    But I also have a kickass jack russell terrier, OM# these dogs are the best, I have had few diff dogs, but these dogs are the best. There so smart, sneaky, funny, energetic, so cool.

    I have this duck, Drake, hes a Muskovy, a Russian duck, specifically bred for his meat, they are so fat they cant actually fly, but he can hover forward a bit like a hovercraft, never actually leaving the ground, but behaving as if he were floating ON it.... he has a crest like a cockatiel that stand up when he gets ****, and he hisses, instead of quacking, very cool duck...

    Oh yea, a bobcat tried to eat him, and he killed it when he flogged it with his wings....


    I allso have this cat, Barkley, born in a lab, used to train EMT's to intibate infants, and they only do it 3 times, then they put them to sleep, we rescued her. The funniest thing is that, of all 9 of our cats, she has the best hunting skills, she brings donw rabbits twice her size.

    And yes, i said 9 cats, I live in Oklahoma on 20 acres though... so its ok

    I have:
    2 French Alpine goats (diamond and Ivy)
    1 Muskovy Duck(drake)
    5 Chickens(named dinner)
    2 India Runner ducks (fast little devils, and cunning too)(speedy and klepto: he steals the blossoms off garden flowers, and drops them in piles in his pen
    1 Great Dane(lady)
    9 Cats(Omar,Socks,Mrs.Kitty,Barkley,Tiny,Sore-ear,Dweezel,Indy,Bob)
    1 Cockatiel(george)
    1 Hampster(Mrs.Flufkins)

    And a partige in a pear treeeeeeeee

    I have a cat that bites and treats people like toys,practically biting and scratching every now and then....
    Of course she doesn't have rabies,just a behaviour thing,she's been like that ever since she was fed some red meat :\

    The wonders of variety in nature,yeesh :\

    But snakes are cool,just that Im afraid of them,and I thought pythons wont bite.... <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused.gif'><!--endemo-->

    pythons can bite if provoked too. like dogs, they wont take bad treatment. and rocks have the teeth <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->
    Cept just dont treat them bad then you dont have to worry.

    Thats alot of animals you have there.
    my friend lives in a huge house. (that was actually heavly infuenced by frank loyde wright (SP?) she owns 13 dogs. mini pinchers, st. bernards, great danes. springer spaniels...and cant remember them all.
    she owns 2 monk parrots. a african grey. a parakeet and 14 cats.

    She teaches me how to play the violin. but i spend more time playing with the animals then playing violin <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    i got my snake a rat today. cept the cage wasnt warm enough for her to eat. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo--> so i had to buy yet another lamp. so hopefully she will eat soon. rocks can be picky. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    I agree now , Snakes aren't viscous, a boy on the news was attacked by 2 dogs and had to have 17+ stitches. Nasty.

    They aren't vicious, either <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'><!--endemo-->

    "viscous" means "thick". Opposite of "runny". Glycerine is viscous, snakes are (or aren't, as the case may be) vicious <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    That would be horrible to clean up after. Thank god my Geckos are tidy and poop only in one area of their tank. Could you train it to poo in one area ?

    Hmm your the only woman i know who owns a reptile, wonder why ? reptiles are so cute and interesting, i rather have a Bocs monitor or a water dragon instead of a cat/dog.
  • BOOBOO Join Date: 2003-07-28 Member: 18504Members
    You can make a snake poo by rubbing its belly, which you do before holding it. and i think you can train them to poo in certain areas,

    Hey do you know one differance between boa constrictors and pythons?

    I was checking out red-tailed boas. but i decided on A Rock python. Since they are not a very common snake to own as a pet. Burmese are but they get fat and lazy. Rocks are not lazy at all. Red--tailed boas are cool though. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->

    hmmmm i got my snake a rat. and it wont eat still -_-
    they say when they are cold they can fast for awhile.
    So we warmed the cage up, to the right temp.
    but now we have to wait, for her to decide its ok to eat.
    Now the rat is sitting there looking cute...poor rat <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->

    Boas actually tighten its "Grip" when the animal breaths in, so evetually the animal sufficates
    Pythons just crush them.

    my sister said that blood squirts out the rat's ears when they are being crushed. enjoy the cuteness of the rat while you still can. and btw your snake will get more aggressive if it has to kill it's food. you have to step on the rat or throw it against the wall a few times or something to kill it yourself before you give it to your snake. enjoy. better yet, don't give your snake pets to eat. i don't feed rats to my cats do i?
