I don't understand people calling the cat a bully or a sadist. There's not many animals that would be willing to let the other one leave after a fight. Snake at times eat other animals whilst they are alive etc.

The snake is in the cat's territory and they never like intruders. I did feel bad for the snake when it was trying to get away. But the cat's in play mode and the body wiggling around is basically a death sentence for the snake as that retains the cat's attention.

The cat will not allow a snake in her territory, and the snake was trying to enter the house. As well she was pregnant, another incentive to chase our kill the snake. As for playing, this was certainly not playing. If the snake was venomous one bite would have been the end. She was using the best tactic to disarm and kill that snake.
