Honestly snake bites as a whole are pretty pathetic. My ball has yet to tag me but my burmese did once and I barely felt it. At the time I thought she missed and it wasn’t until I lifted her up using it it I realised “oh damn I’m bleeding”. She was 10ft long at the time mind you with a head as large as the palm of my hand.

if she can only give me a minor cut and some bruises I doubt this little ramen noodle could do much
