Yay! The cat is okay! So happy to hear that the snake bite didn't kill that beautiful cat!

That poor baby cat ......... if the owner knew there were venemous snakes around, I cannot believe she let her cat out. Cats and dogs will naturally go after a moving snake.

I also cannot believe she didnt take her cat to the vet immediately. Having a copperhead around her neck is an obvious sign that the cat was almost positively bitten.

Venom from a snake bite on a cat starts acting immediately, waiting hours later will more than likely cause this poor kitty irreversible effects. I hope it was not a lot of venom.

I almost can't believe that! Of course, being an herp-lover I wonder what happened to the snake?

Me either!! It doesn't look like it's wrapped around her neck to me. It looks more like it's looped around her collar and I just can't believe a cat would lay still long enough for that to happen. I guess anything's possible tho!
