I shouldn't need to explain why putting clothing on snakes is unnecessary and cruel. Think about it.

as long as someone doesnt force the snake to be stuck in something and its a rare thing for photos i hardly see as much of a problem with it; however, the hats look uncomfortable. If my snake wanted out all he would have to do is move forward.

Your acting as if your snake has a say in this. No matter how nice you put the clothing on, you're still forcing it on them.

I'm going to stop now, I just wanted to voice my thoughts.

I'd lable that as cruel.I wouldn't necessarily call it "cruel," as it's unlikely to cause severe physical or psychological suffering, but it's certainly not something that's "cute" and is likely to at least be somewhat unpleasant for the snake. No need to do this to them.

I wonder if you people are all on Tumblr. You sound like people on tumblr (i.e. there's always someone shouting INJUSTICE!)

I'm losing my faith in this forum. Any new thread I see is often met with negativity.

In my mind, when I think of animal cruelty and abuse, I don't think of someone putting a harmless hat on their snake. I think of the reptiles (and animals) who are starved, beaten, mutilated, slaughtered inhumanely, tortured...

BUT CRAP, THAT SNAKE IS WEARING A HAT? ABUSE ABUSE.

Really?

I am a little surprised myself at all the people shouting abuse.. I don't think it is abuse at all. I do think it is really lame and pointless though.

Nice hypo. Even though I wouldn't do it I still laughed. Keep rocking it.

I thought about it and yep it is unnecessary. We all tend to do things that ate unnecessary. I will have to disagree with you on this one as I can't see anything really harming the snake.

You happen to be right. I think a lot of us, me at the forefront, are getting tired and jaded. It happens and we will come around. Just roll with it and speak up when it happens.

I agree that i dontsee it as abuse but it is totally unnecessary and i would never do it to any of my animals - reptile of mammal

Guess I'm the only one with a sense of humor... :sorry:
I don't see how setting something on a snake's head and taking a photo of it is cruel...as long as you don't do it all the time and it isn't hurting the snake. Along that same argument, I could say that just handling our snakes is cruel. Since many snakes don't "like" it.

I agree. Would I do it ? No but I don't see abuse.

my husband named him jerry rice who happened to play football so I made him a little jersey out of fleece, took a couple of pics of him in it and now its in a shadow box with some other "football memorabilia" related to jerry rice- like photoshoped pics of my snake on JR's body. After the pics i let him slither out of it and he just hid his head in it, i wish i had taped it because he slithered around with it on his head like " YAY IMA SNAKE I AM INVISIBLE!"

Really?Well abuse doesn't have to be physical. There are other kinds. Though, like I said, I wouldn't necessarily call this abuse. Just...stupid and a bit unpleasant for the snake.I am a little surprised myself at all the people shouting abuse.. I don't think it is abuse at all. I do think it is really lame and pointless though."All the people" as in one person?

I guess I missed that set of pics, and I agree that that elastic is way to tight. But the other ones? With a little hat just 'set' on the snake's head? Not cruel imo.
