You don't WANT to listen, don't you? You will regret your choice.

To keep it short and to the point. I see a potential problem, and the fault
doesn't belong to the animal(s) in question.

Just a gentle reminder about snakes. With all due respect to people
who may like snakes or take them as pets, to put it very simply:

Snakes are....snakes.

It doesn't necessarily mean they're bad, but it, at the very least,
means that snakes can easily be on the very bottom of the list of
creatures that can be tamed or domesticated, or that are "ok" to be
domesticated, even when humans can train almost any creature.

The snake being a symbol of evil is not just a historical or ancient
teaching or remnant of the past, it actually descended from teachings
of some of the prophets or holy men. For instance, I do remember the
story of prophet Moses, his staff, the Israelite magicians, and
turning staffs into snakes, and Moses fearing the snake that
manifested from his own staff; and I do remember that prophet Mohamed
also adviced his companions to beware snakes.

Other creatures that have negative associations to them from different
religions, after the snake, include: pigs, geckos, and rats. Creatures
that have good associations to them from different religions include:
horses, doves & pigeons, bees, and cows.

Just a gentle reminder, everyone, take no offense. You can listen, or
just pass it on.

Best wishes,

Yasso
