I had a betta as a kid, and he always puffed himself up to intimidate various objects that I held in front of him. It was cute.

I'm not real big on fish, though. I prefer pets that can be handled outside of water. Especially snakes. <3 I still don't understand how snakes are scary to people. I mean, they're so cute. D:

Edit:
@Scarf
I've heard of that. Weren't people getting medical problems from it, though? Because the fish were carrying stuff from person to person and infecting people?

Honest September 20th, 2013 1:52 PM

Buy your own school of them! Problem solved. =D

I've wanted to try that for a while now, I've seen many stalls set up all over Town but I've heard it can cause bacterial infections and such.

Shiny Celebi September 20th, 2013 2:25 PM

That sounds kinda weird tbh.

One more thing on the betta fish subject, it was so funny when I would go look at my sister's betta and he would freak out everytime someone looked at him it was really funny, no idea why a fish would do that, maybe he liked the attention idk. xD

eeeee snakes. <3 They're so cute. Especially pythons with their cat face. I've never had one though since I'm never sure whether I can feed it mice or not. Probably dead ones but yeah.

After this talk I definitely want to try to get a Betta for myself. Just so I can have something for a pet which is better than nothing.

Honest September 20th, 2013 3:47 PM

Pythons with a cat face? What.

Hiatus September 20th, 2013 4:02 PM

Our neighbors have a pet snake. They've shown it to us when they invited us to their house for dinner a few months back. They even let it crawl around my hand for a few minutes, and it felt kind of cold and slippery. The snake was very friendly, but I was still a bit nervous to have it around me. xD"

I don't think I would ever get a snake as a pet. Snakes just simply scare me.

Just look at it


They have that same :3 that cats have. At least to me (and someone who made an image saying such so I'm not the only one!) they do and it's adorable.

Honest September 20th, 2013 4:12 PM

I Googled "cat face python" and got:


I don't think I've ever touched a snake, but I'd definitely love to be able to. They're so cool. =D

EDIT: okay, that's is pretty damn adorable. :3

Sirfetch’d September 20th, 2013 4:16 PM

Ugh I am terrified of snakes and I don't think that I would ever have the courage to touch one. Yes, I love them because they are fascinating creatures but I'll keep my distance :D

Nolafus September 20th, 2013 4:37 PM

I could definitely have a snake. I think they're really cool and I like snake pokemon as well (Serperior). I think I might get one when I'm older.

blue September 20th, 2013 5:00 PM

I don't like Snakes, I know a few people who have them as pets but I just don't see the appeal to them really.. I'd rather have a cat or a dog. ;)

Kanzler September 20th, 2013 5:02 PM

I'd have a snake that eats cats lololol

Tsutarja September 20th, 2013 5:03 PM

I've never been truly frightened of snakes but I do know that I live around wild snakes and I have come across them in the past too.

Meganium September 20th, 2013 5:16 PM

Snakes are cute to look at.... in pictures that is. If I see a snake irl, I will probably run away in an instant.

Honest September 20th, 2013 5:18 PM

John, you'll get eaten by a snake one day now. Karma is real!

Sirfetch’d September 20th, 2013 5:51 PM

This thread is making me think of Snakes on a Plane. :(

Enough is enough! I've had it with these discussions about snakes on this freakin DCC thread!

Sorry, I really couldn't resist the reference there. x)

Hiatus September 20th, 2013 5:55 PM

Two years ago, a wild snake's gotten inside of our backyard somehow. Me and my sister were the only ones that were in our house at that time, and our parents were at work. If they weren't, then they probably would have done something about it. We had the back door open, but the snake never got inside. Thank god. d: This snake is no longer in our yard, but it still may be hiding itself underground somewhere.

We had a similar experience but the snake had somehow gotten into our garage. My little brother happened to notice it when he was looking for something in the garage. It was quite scary, but luckily it wasn't a poisonous snake and my dad was able to catch him and relocate him somewhere else.

Honest September 20th, 2013 6:28 PM

I allegedly almost stepped on a snake after going of the trail and "trespassing".

She spooked me at the time it happened, but thinking back, I'm pretty sure the park ranger only said that to mess with me.

Sirfetch’d September 20th, 2013 6:37 PM

I know that would be a pretty good scare tactic for me! I would never trespass again if I knew that I almost stepped on a snake :(

Shiny Celebi September 20th, 2013 6:40 PM

I don't think I'd have a snake for a pet.

I sorta want some kind of pet reptile eventually though, I don't know what kind.

alisaie September 20th, 2013 6:42 PM

Apparently I almost stepped on a snake when I walked out the front door just a little bit ago. Not too long ago before then I saw a really small snake on the walkway up to the front door. And then several months ago my sister and brother helped a snake that got tangled in some sort of net while I took pictures.

Yeah snakes aren't that uncommon around my house aha. Also Banana Spiders are fairly common in the woods in our backyard. Also one currently in out front yard as well.

Bearded Dragons are like the dogs of the reptile family and make great pets. I had one but only for ten months since I had to put her down earlier this month. Kidney failure. ;__;

Sirfetch’d September 20th, 2013 6:45 PM

What in the world is a Banana Spider? I hope this doesn't ruin bananas for me as I absolutely fear spiders and if one looks like a banana it just might D:
