Molest in English has a sexual connotation but the Latin root means "to bother" and in most other romantic languages it just means to annoy someone, so I think it's a mistranslation.
I believe it more or less says "do not annoy, annoy, annoy, annoy, stress, harass, harass, harass, harass, irritate, harass, irritate, annoy, annoy, irritate, entice, or ruffle the animal"
I'm not sure how you even could tease her. She's not all that bright, poor thing
'
Also-- This was all fun and games until I read the "molest" term. "Assault or abuse (a person, ESPECIALLY a woman or child) sexually. " the heck is this <_< I get the "especially children" part, but women part feels unnecessary
She's okay haha. She's currently fasting, which is something ball Pythons sometimes decide to do in the winter. It's interesting, despite the temperature never really changing in her terrarium, she's actually a decent little barometer. She freaks out almost anytime there's a storm on the way, fasts when the weather gets really ugly in the winter, etc etc.
Oh. I had no idea. Thanks for snak-educating me lol. It‘s interesting how sensitive she is. An aunt of mine thinks only crazy people have snakes(obviously not true)
I can't actually dispute her because I am most definitely crazy, but probably not in the way she means. Tbh I'm surprised more people don't own ball pythons. Hypoallergenic and she mostly just hides (which is common-- they spend as much as 90% of their time hiding). A lot more low maintenance than a fish tank and easier to provide proper care.. But the rats and such make people squeamish I guess haha.

Still, the guy who helped convince me to get her owned 50+ snakes, including venomous ones he milked to help produce antivenoms (I believe), an extremely large boa, and several other reptiles (he and his girlfriend adopted a turtle someone had abandoned with water so dirty an infection had sealed it's eyes shut and it took several weeks before it cleared up enough for the poor thing to be able to see again). I bet your aunt would just love to sit down with him for awhile. <.<
Her idea on “crazy“ is a deranged person who needs help. I‘m don‘t hate snakes but I haven‘t really been a snake person. I panic a bit.
Woah, that‘s an absolute snake lover. I‘m glad the lil thing got better. Knowing my aunt, she‘d rather burn his snakes alive
I found him hiding again this morning and I tried to find what he was afraid of. Turned out it was a stuffed animal I got last night. We were at the mall and I got a toy dumbo from hot topic. Apparently it scares the crap out of him. (-.-) I had to put in my room. And than boogie saw it and she has declared it hers. Lol she dragged it to her pen pile.
Boogie is so pampered/spoiled if you eat in front of her she taps your hand holding the spoon/fork like excuse me WHERE is my share?!
Because we all will feed her some of our food when we eat lol. Because she is so tiny and we are trying to fatten her up.
*put hands sorta halfway up, and moves them up and down slightly* hey, @aviva you dont want to do this. You'll spend years in prison, wrestling with your guilt. I know right now this seems like the only way to handle the situation, but it isn't. Let's put the gun down, we can talk about this.
*quietly, to @catfluff* I need you to go, quickly, quietly. Out the back door. Try to stay as out of sight as possible. Once outside, call 911. Tell them exactly what's happened. Keep moving. I'll call you when it's safe.
*pulls out police badge*
@catfluff, you are under arrest for animal cruelty
@thekaylapup, you are under arrest for threatening the safety of others.
You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford an attorney,one will be provided for you.
@thekaylapup righto!
@catfluff cannot be under arrest, for I am a cat and nowhere to be seen.
@aviva you think the law is stronger than it is my friend
