Today, my cat decided to show me just how much he loves me by bringing a live snake into my bedroom. Thanks. FML

Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, like most days, my cat brought something to my doorstep. Usually it's a slew of dead mice, but this time he brought this big, ugly snake. I'm always the only one in my family "brave" enough to go fetch our cat's gifts. It took until lifting it up to realize the snake wasn't dead. FML
Today, when I got back to my bedroom, I found my cat had left not one, not two, but four dead lizards for me. FML
Today, I woke up to an angry snake trying to climb the leg of my bed. My bedroom was closed all day yesterday. It must have gotten in my room days ago. FML
Today, I tried to impress the guy I like. He breeds reptiles, and I happen to have a snake and a lizard. I went over to his house to show them off. He opened the door just as my lizard fell between my boobs. He had to help me get it out. FML
Today, my boyfriend tried to cure me of my snake phobia by buying one. When he took it out of the cage, it bit him. Now he's terrified of them too. Even worse, he dropped the snake, so it's now loose in our house. FML
Today I opened the door for my cat and he brought in a rat with him. Now the rat is hiding in my house. FML
Today, after struggling to fall asleep due to stress, my cat decided to wake me up by standing on me and meowing until I got up. Just for me to show him that my boyfriend had already put food in his dish. FML
Today, I kicked my dog's toy snake out of my way. Then I realised my dog doesn't have a toy snake. FML
Today, my cat played dead just so I would leave him alone. FML
Today my cat watched me clean and refill his water bowls, then shoved his fresh-out-of-the-litter-box paw in my glass of water. FML

He probably felt sorry for you since there haven’t been many “live snakes” in your bedroom for quite a while!

That actually is a sign of love, super adorable. My cat occasionally pukes on my shoes. Wanna trade?

My mom has a doggie door and the cat brings in mice, birds, and snakes into their bed at 4am on a frequent basis - sometimes not even dead. The worst was a live baby bunny, who the cat brought to them at 2am, let go, caught, and killed without leaving the bed. My mom tells folks that the noise the bunny made when it died still haunts her. O_O

I couldn't vote either way on this. Since a live snake from my cat was one of the best gifts I've ever gotten, I certainly don't think your life sucks. Snakes are SO CUTE!!! And it's always nice when a cat lets his prey live. But since you seem to be complaining about what many of us would view as a delightful encounter with nature, and a sign of your cat's devotion, you certainly didn't deserve it.

Considering I have 2 cats, live in AZ and have a massive phobia of snakes, I live in terror of things like this happening. Especially since my cats are indoor only and any snakes they would bring will 1) most likely be poisonous and 2) would have already been inside my house. *shudder* nightmare fuel

Maybe he wanted help killing it...

I'm calling bullshit, I have a load of snakes and have had a few cats. Cats are shit scared of snakes and they should be considering a snake could kill and would kill a cat in minutes.

From what I’ve read, this means that your cat realizes that you suck at hunting, but cares about you enough to try and make sure that you don’t starve.
