She slept with her snake and then the vet told her something shocking
This is a true story about a woman from India who lived in the Middle Ages and had a pet snake, python, which she loved so much. The snake was 4 meters long and looked healthy. However, one day her unusual pet just stopped eating.
This lack of appetite in the snake continued over a few weeks. The desperate woman tried everything she could and offered anything that a snake would like to strangle and eat. Nothing worked, and finally the woman took her loving pet to the veterinarian as a last resort.
The vet listened to the woman carefully and asked, “Does your snake sleep with you at night, wrap around you closely and spread out throughout its length?”
The woman was surprised and with a lot of hope she said, “Yes! Yes! It does it every day. It hugs me and then stretches out next to me. Nothing else. It just lies there, not eating, not playing. And it makes me so sad because I know it wants something of me, and I cannot help it feel better.”
Then, the vet said something shocking and most unexpected. “Madam, your pet is not sick; it is just preparing to eat you.”
“Every time, it is creeping and “hugging” you, wrapping around your body, it is checking size to weigh how a great meal you are and how it must be prepared before the attack. And yes, it does not eat, in order to have enough space to digest you more easily,” the vet said.
This story comes with a moral – Even people close to you, whom you are very affectionate with, can, have mean intentions. You need to identify the snake around you and their true intent. Hugs and kisses are not always honest.
Don’t fear the enemy that attacks you, but the fake friends that hug you.
