Mongi only work with cobras - the slowest of them all.

I new a herpetologist who'd tested the theory and found... boas love to eat mongooses.

I don't recognize that snake model. Seems sort of Australian but I dono.

I'm having a hard time understanding this picture. If it was a constrictor why and how would it be up 8 ft in the rafters somewhere a cat wouldn't be - with a cat? They don't back up once they attack. So it wouldn't back back up into the rafters after being on the floor making a kill.


This makes it all too clear.. It wasn't the dingos.

@ classic.


Uh, yeah it is kinda grim.

I can't say if that snake is Aussie or not, but it isn't a carpet python which is our most common python.

Lacking any rope, Mittens killed a snake, tied it into a noose, and jumped off the highest rafter he could find. Ever since his owner had him fixed ('broken' is more like it, thought Mittens), he found he had lost the will to live any more.

I dunno about that particular breed of snake, but my (much smaller) ball pythons would often strike downward to pick the mouse up off the tank floor if they were already up in their little climby branches when it was feeding time. They wouldn't deliberately climb up there for an attack, but they spent a lot of time just hanging out up there, so it was an even chance it was faster to just reach down and grab the food. What's more, once they made the initial snatch, they would often recoil backwards in order to get more strength behind their grip or sometimes extra wraps around the mouse if the little guy was a fighter.

Also, what in the world makes you say a cat wouldn't be in the rafters? You only have cats with no legs or something?

A good image of the day would be someone with gangrene of the genitals slicing their wrist with a butter knife while spiders crawl on their face and a giant clown lady barfs on them.

Maybe the cat isn't quite dead in that pic.... maybe the camera person snapped a quick shot to aid the vetinary paramedics and then rushed to rescue the poor wee thing? See, it's waving.....
