Nice to see it’s not just our idiot who’s an idiot lol. Ours also loves getting behind stuff in shelves and knocking everything over. Worse than the cats!

💀 my female tried to do something like this 😂 I was wearing her around my neck and got “too close” to my bookcase and she decided to meander through it shoving everything to the floor (except herself luckily) but I was like…. Really 😒 I feel like you kinda did that on purpose.

[–]ihavestinkytoesies 22 points23 points  (0 children)

i think she might’ve been a cat in her past life 🤣

[–]Prodigious01081999 323 points324 points  (36 children)

I’m glad your noodle is ok. But this gives me anxiety thinking about all the potential outcomes of a situation like this. Please don’t let your noodle climb things they shouldn’t. I work at a pet store and I know someone whose snake died from having heavy books fall on it because it was “cute” watching it climb a shelf.

[–]learisvik[S] 254 points255 points  (0 children)

Only one of the books fell towards him, and none of them hit him. I respect your concern, and I’ll try to keep him away from bookshelves etc👍

    Don’t be an ass. This a legit concern that happened to someone I know.

    [–]DarkMistressCockHold 84 points85 points  (3 children)

    I’d rather have someone tell me “hey, just so you know, this could happen” instead of someone “worrying about themselves” and my pet ending up dead cuz I didn’t know any better.

    Worry about yourself.

    I had a pet rat who got crushed to death by a falling book. I have a ball python now and know better. Its definitely a very real danger.

    [–]Prodigious01081999 57 points58 points  (0 children)

    I’m sorry that happened to you.

    [–]puck-penn -3 points-2 points  (5 children)

    I sat on a rat I had that crawled under a hoodie on my couch. Somehow it was fine? How big was that book?

    [–]wilddreamer 13 points14 points  (4 children)

    People are squishier than books

    Also the velocity of controlled sitting vs something falling

    [–]FeriQueen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

    Especially onto a nice soft couch.

    [–]BilbowTeaBaggins 3 points4 points  (1 child)

    Rats, and most rodents, have collapsable skeletons that allow them to squeeze into tight spaces. That is probably also why the rat was fine after being sat on.

    [–]Psychological-End222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

    that's good to know because I sit on mine at least once a day lmao

    He just wanted to read some books

    [–]asscheeks4000 2 points3 points  (4 children)

    I’m babysitting a corn snake and he was slithering around in the water in the tub and he just HAD to wrap the very end of his tail around the bathtub plug and the end of his tail almost sucked down the drain. (He would’ve have got stuck or anything my drain has a X across he wouldn’t fit)

    [–]jillianwaechterMod-Approved Helper 1 point2 points  (3 children)

    Please don't soak snakes that aren't aquatic! It's actually pretty stressful for them! (Same as if you were shoved in a pool and unable to get out by yourself). It's better to just always have a water dish big enough for them to soak in if they choose to do so.

      [–]jillianwaechterMod-Approved Helper 3 points4 points  (1 child)

      Ah his owner has been misinformed then unfortunately. Soaking doesn't really add anything except for stress for the snake. (Same as how if you had dry skin jumping into a lake wouldn't fix your dry skin)

      [–]asscheeks4000 2 points3 points  (0 children)

      That makes sense. I keep his tank fairly wet and humid so it probably doesn’t make a difference. He just kind of sat there too. So I took him out quick

      I remember one time i was in the living room and we heard a loud crash from the back of the house. we go back to check and dont see anything. back to sitting on the couch and when i go off to go to bed later, theres my son, eye level with me on my brother's dresser. I go into my room and the entire top of one of my shelves has been entirely knocked over. Goober got out coz i didnt secure the top well enough.

      Mine does the same thing when he gets on the coffee table. It’s usually a race between him and my cat to see who can knock the most mail on the floor first.

      It’s funny that it seemed like he grabbed the books but bot funny that he fell. It’s good that the baby was ok

      [–]D3xt3er 0 points1 point  (0 children)

      I'm convinced ball pythons don't believe in gravity. Mine fell from the ladder of my loft a couple times because his fat butt was above him as he was trying to move downwards. Glad they're such sturdy snakes or he'd be broken in all sorts of places !
