Title says it all

Like, do snakes even know youre their friend? From the people ive seen, they are still trying to kill you and wrap themselves around your neck, so why do people still keep them and talk to them as pets?

My guinea pig still sometimes runs away from me, but she at least likes me and and my voice and just stops eating if I dont speak to her every day to the point that I needed to force feed her nutrient slop, she lets me cuddle her, etc

And snakes are just like: I will kill you the second I see you

      I’m being general as I didn’t list all pets but I’d say that’s a pretty good trio of pet types and pets usually within the groups. It is indeed general and not exhaustive.

      Parrots and monkeys are group 1, for example. Rat and budgie are 2. Spider and lizard and tortoise are 3.

      Sea monkeys transcend all groups and break all rules.
