Marketing Luxury Real Estate: What the Cat Dragged In, Wild Wed. Early

John,

Kobe has always announced his catch...this is one of the smaller snakes he has brought home.  The largest was in Napa where he found on whose girth was the size of a Alaskan king crab leg and was very long, he must have staggered home.  This one we had to coax into a trash can, put the lid on, and drive in to a field nearby.  He also was a garden variety.

Debb,

In some American Indian Tribal Medecine, the snakes are considered a symbol of transformation.  Kobe is a real sweet and loving cat. 

Kathy,

You are funny, this snake is harmless and beneficial to all of us.  He is an asset in the garden as they eat slugs, mice, etc. 

Chris,

I don't think, he was delighted to move from where he was, and he knew that Kobe was not going to off him!

Roy,

Ron also calls Kobe, the snake charmer!

Li,

He certainly is a daring cat. 

Tony,

We adore him!  We just handle whatever he brings our way. LOL

Sharon,

He found him wherever he is wondering.  We are close to the salt marsh preservation area which leads to the ocean.  He has quite a territory to hunt in, and we suspect that is where he found this lovely creature.  In order to bring him home, he had to climb up 6 foot fences that surround our property with the snake in tow.  Abyssinians are amazing jumpers, and to do it while holding a snake is a feat...no snakes in our yard...LOL

Myrl,

I love your story about Sabu.  We do know what voles are.  While living in Napa our property had a lot of voles which our three cats would catch and leave by the front door for us.  They are a favorite of birds of prey which are encouraged by the vineyard owners.  We had two vineyards that abutted our property, and the kites (hover type birds) love the voles and we would see them dropping down like a helicopter for voles.  The hawks, our owl and our golden eagle would also feast on it.  Sabu must have felt he needed to take care of you.  What a lovely story.  A

Sussie,

We did take it far away, and this is not a poisonous snake.  I think children should know that certain snakes are beneficial and not to be feared. 

Patricia,

Thanks, and we agree, he is a beautiful cat.  He is doing his job and thanking us for all the treats and care he gets from us.

William,

He is an amazing cat in finding this snake and bringing it to us via fences and whatever other obstacles he encountered on his way home.

Valerie,

He is definitely a catch and release type of guy...it is funny how some cats have that in them.

Eileen,

Thank you, we do appreciate your comments. A

Toni,

He has always been that way, we have had lizards released in the house. A
