I just don’t get it.

I’m currently injecting antibiotics into one of my snakes who has a respiratory infection and I feel like an EVIL CRUD because I know she doesn’t understand why I’m “hurting” her and she certainly can’t associate her improving health with those nasty pokes.

When we’re done, I just sit and cuddle her for a half hour, trying to let her know I really am sorry for the pain.

I just don’t get it.

Some people are just pure evil: for example all democrats/liberals/Marxists are pure evil( look at the liberals in the big media for proof of pure evil).

Well I kinda know how you feel because I had to give my dog fluids under her skin for a short stretch back in December 2010/January 2011. It hurt me to hurt her even though I was actually helping her. We ended up having to put her to sleep in March 2012 though. She had something going on that just kept coming back.

I can't much relate to snakes as pets, but even with a snake I wouldn't want to see one be deliberately hurt or killed for no reason. I hope your pet gets over her illness soon.

O.K....I gotta know..

How does one cuddle a snake and do they know they are being cuddled?

The snakes in my neck of the woods aren’t really cuddly.

But I know you are Elliemayander.:)
