Pah, weak European housepets! Ours used to bring in young live Brown Snakes
(one of the top ten most venomous). Neither the cat nor the snakes were ever
seriously harmed. Us kids wandering into the kitchen while a snake was
rearing up to strike under the table, and the back of the fridge when my
father got a shock and wanted to kill the snake with a shotgun were probably
worse off.
The cat disappeared in the end, a bit of a mystery really :?)
