Snooty Booty Snakes with Boring Bio Lesson that Includes Cats?

*air horns* another one this WEEEEEEEK!!!

So this is a little snooty booty! He a ball python and he is just natural colors. One thing about me some people don't know is that I LOVE snakes. I LOVE THEM THEY'RE SO ADORABLE. Don't boop their hecking snoots. Seriously though, unless your little snake is really accustomed to touch, snoot booping is stressful for them, and ball pythons are really stressed out animals. They're called ball pythons because they roll up into a ball when they're stressed! If they're stressed they won't eat, which is one of the main problems snake owners have with ball pythons. I don't have one, because I want to educate myself as much as possible before I get one, and I encourage you to do the same if you plan on getting one.

Fun fact: snakes and cats smell things in a similar way!! They both have the vomeronasal organ, also known as the Jacobson's organ. From what I know is that the Jacobson's organ is above the roof of both their mouths. With cats, they can use their nose to smell, but sometimes they'll open their mouth to breathe through so they can get more information or detect non-volatile chemical cues. Snakes will use their tongues to "gather the scents". This explanation is grossly oversimplifying the concept, but I only have what I can understand from Wikipedia and what I know already. Do some research on it. Not right now, it's Friday. Enough learning for this week. NO MORE LEARNING. Erase everything you just read from your mind and forget that you learned anything. Got it? Okay.

(For some reason when I preview/post this most of this ^ paragraph is highlighted white and for some reason I can't fix it. SORRY.

Edit: I tried to fix it again and now it's just all white ;-; now I officially give up. Edit: I lied. I tried again and fixed it. Yaaaay...)
