On Friday I got Lucky out of her cage because I thought she would want some time out. Well, I think she was hungry because they usually get fed on the weekends. It seemed like she was looking around for food. I only held her for a few minutes and she bit me! She's been with me for over 3 years and this is the first time she bit me. I was sliding my hand down which happened to be right in front of her face and she bit my pinky finger. It surprised me because she hasn't done that before but I just put her back in her cage.
It is not the first time I have ever been bitten by a snake. It doesn't really hurt to get bit, or at least the times I have been bitten it didn't hurt. It's not like the snakes sink their teeth in and pull back. I guess they can but it hasn't happened to me. When I have been bit, the snakes just bite and let go. So there is little pin-pricks left. When Lucky bit me, I had 4 little pin-pricks on one side and 5 little pin-pricks on the other side of my finger. My little rat snake, Drew, bit me once when I was reaching into the cage. But that was like one little pin-prick on my finger.
I think a scratch from a cat hurts a lot more. I can't believe people keep those dangerous cats in their house! Ha!
