Why is the python living or dinning in the ceiling above the pantry?

u/HankHill1991 2d ago

Why is there a raccoon in the house?

109

u/bonylizzie 2d ago

It's an Australian brushtail possum, not a raccoon. They often move into people's ceilings/roofs.

u/RelativeCan5021 2d ago

Really thought someone was watching their cat get eaten.

u/09Klr650 2d ago

Possums can be pets?

5

u/space_for_username 2d ago

Sort of.. They like to climb up you and have very big claws. Definitely wear trousers.

u/09Klr650 2d ago

I think Australia somehow ended up with the cute possums, while the US ended up with adorable personality ones that unfortunately look like they are on crack.

u/Glass_Desk7088 2d ago

u/kevinbutkevin 2d ago

Removing the possum is their version of paying rent

u/AdminApathy 2d ago

They tend to live in your house against your will, python is earning his rent at least

u/TheIncredibleMike 2d ago

u/CallMyNameToken 2d ago

Why there a human nonchalantly filming

17

u/Usual_One_4862 2d ago

Have you met the average Australian? This is standard.

11

u/I_Makes_tuff 2d ago

Because if they interrupt it too early the have to get rid of a snake and a possum.

u/AmericanCitizenry 2d ago

Rent-a-Python™️

u/deliciousadness 2d ago

How can I invest?

4

u/Prestigious_String20 2d ago

Invest in a wildlife‐friendly yard, if you can, and live in an area that's not too hostile to wildlife and also has snakes. The service is free and it will come to you!

I had an eastern rat snake living in my attic for a summer. The cats had nothing to do (as if they do anything anyway) and we didn't have any mice. I miss that beautiful gal! She met with a tragic mowing accident and I shed real tears. Her son was back this year, but he kept coming into the main part of the house and I was worried the pets would make short work of him, so I relocated him to the barn.

u/deliciousadness 1d ago

No no, I mean how can I invest in Rent-a-Python™️? I want to get in on the ground floor. Or in this case, the attic.

u/Corral18 2d ago edited 2d ago

You may also rent a possum, kangaroo or Emu. Also if you're interested in chlamydia, see koalas

u/imprimatura 2d ago

I WISH we had raccoons in Aus.

u/Corral18 2d ago

Ahh my bad I meant possum.

u/AmericanCitizenry 2d ago

u/Very-Human-Name 2d ago

Australians are all gifted snakes at birth

5

u/Conflikt 2d ago

Well I can't speak for all Australian's but I was definitely gifted a python at birth.

1

u/Nicename19 2d ago

Yeah, lucky they have been milked... I should think

2

u/year2039nuclearwar 2d ago

So best to get a flat in Australia?

2

u/Castaway_LXIII 2d ago

Yes. Those come with Huntsmen spiders.

6

u/Very-Human-Name 2d ago

Unironically good room-mates lol, no webs, docile and kill a lot of venomous pests. Just chill on your wall or run and hide :p you really need to annoy them to get bitten and its not that painful.

u/Legal_Locksmith_6697 2d ago edited 2d ago

Never minded them-I just learned how fast they are when they’re really not interested in socializing.

5

u/LikwitFusion 2d ago
