Once they select you as their pet ( see what i did there? ????) , They will save you from the dangers which only they can see ???? pic.twitter.com/txI0Y4p2Hw Wow this cat upgraded itself to a dog Maybe they were just having a conversation about the owner. Hey snakeyy snakerson, help me leave this place pls bruh. Probably she saw this on the internet. pic.twitter.com/C4EpD3kLFg Just the instinctive nature of cat. No intention of 'preventing a cobra from entering a house'. They sort of play with other until one of them backs off. She needs to be given 'wet chicken in gravy' cat food....my cat loves that and I treat her to it every week... In the picture shared by news agency ANI, the white cat was photographed sitting alert in front of the house while the cobra with its spread hood waited in front of it. The cat stood guard for half an hour while locals waited for snake helpline workers to arrive. It was quite a feat for the cat as cobras are known to attack cats if conditions call for it. Sampath K Parida, a resident of the house, said that their cat is only one-and-a-half years old. "It lives with us like a family member," Mr Parida added. The post garnered many reactions. Some chose to bring up their experiences with their protective cats. One user wrote, "Here's mine. Once they select you as their pet (see what I did there?), they will save you from the dangers which only they can see."
