According to IOL news, an owner of a cat has been seen bringing a young puff adder to someone as a form of a present.
I kid you not, a cat managed to take a dangerous and venomous snake to the owner without geteing so much of a scratch on the animal.
According to Nick, cats can be seen as those kind of animals who are brilliant at dodging snake attacks.
"I was surprised the cat avoided getting bit by the fast-striking, highly venomous snake. Fortunately the snake was unharmed", says Nick.

Despite this, not all cats are like this as Nick pointed out that there's been other cats in various areas like Pinetown who weren't as lucky.
"Two cats at a home in Pinetown couldn't dodge the spray of a Mozambique spitting cobra, lucky enough though they have both recovered", says Nick.
According to IOL, there has been reports of cats bringing in snakes that are either killed already or still alive but are not as dangerous as initially feared.
These non-venomous snakes are usually killed by cats.
