      Imagine being a vet, coming into work, drinking a cup of coffee, chatting about the weather with Sue and Jim, then suddenly having to extract an electric blanket from a 12 foot python! What a day!! :josh: My WPF Blog[^]

        For a minute there, I had to check. From the subject line, I first thought it was a post from you know who[^]. ;P Chris Meech I am Canadian.

                  I would like to know how much did the operation, plus cost of electricity, equipment and resources code and why isn't that money going to help more needy people?

                    I used to be a vet tech. You wouldn't believe what some animals eat. Dogs will eat just about anything including bras and dirty diapers. Cats often have rocks or coins which cause blockage, too. My own cockatoo decided to eat a hazelnut still in the shell whole. Stuck in his crop for about three days. I love animals, but some of them are just plain dumb.

                      People are supposed to care for animals, as pets, livestock, wildlife, whatever... The vet felt a call on his life to care for such animals; in this case, a snake. Would it have been better to butcher the snake and distribute the meat to the needy? We all spend time here on CP; perhaps our time could be better spent

                          Thanks. I just realized we are going to have to secure our diaper pail from our coonhound. I love her but she loves to eat some disgusting things. :doh:

                              5 for that. People keep animals, so they have to care for them.

                                  Exactly. If we can't care for each other, why would we do we care for pets?

                                    The owner made the choice to keep the snake as a pet for his own entertainment. He has a responsibility to look after it. If your dog is hit by a car you take it to the vet. If you leave it to suffer it's a criminal offence here as it should be. Objects in mirror are closer than they appear

                                      People watch movies for entertainment as well. My point is, you can't really compare life like that.

                                      Just like people have a responsiblity to look after other people before other species. Which was my point, we put more empahsis and sorrow on pets doing stupid shit, but yet laugh at the darwin awards.

                                        People watch movies for entertainment as well. My point is, you can't really compare life like that.

                                        Just like people have a responsiblity to look after other people before other species. Which was my point, we put more empahsis and sorrow on pets doing stupid shit, but yet laugh at the darwin awards.

                                        Its really very simple. If you choose to keep an animal you have a responsibility to look after it. Objects in mirror are closer than they appear

                                          To that extent I can see. My point is I don't see the fuss over it. It's not even worth a news story IMO, we have bigger fish to try ya know. Jeremy Falcon
