Heart-stopping moment: Cat protects deer fawn from 6 foot snake!

- OK, so, wow, this one is really crazy! We get to see tons of wildlife on our farm because it is quite remote and not near any other homes. So, on this day we were filming a new deer fawn that was bedded right near our home in the woods. We were documenting the all day bed down of the fawn. At one point our cat decided to go and check out the fawn. She has befriended deer in the past and has actually played with deer.. But this time something was different!!! I was filming the interaction of the cat investigating the deer fawn. We even tried calling her back so as to leave the fawn alone, as spooking it would have put it in danger being up on its feet on its own. So, as I filmed this whole interaction there was actually a 5 or 6 foot rat snake that was moving towards the fawn. The cat saw this and instinctively tried to intervene and protect the fawn from the huge snake! Grab some popcorn and your favorite beverage because this one is a nail biter. this is ALL REAL LIFE stuff that we document when we see it.

I enjoyed this video. It doesn't matter if the snake was truly a threat to the fawn. The cat thought it was and that was the point of the video. You have an exceptional cat! Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you and very well said. Totally agree!
The cat did not think the snake was a threat to the fawn. Cats will put their ears back and approach anything that rustles on the ground smaller than they are. The cat was just being a cat - not a hero. Too much human projection going on here.
Here is the link to our latest incredible Wildlife video. I believe it is an epic video because there's none other like it, Especially in the lower 48 states. Check it out and you can tell us what you think, thank you
czcams.com/video/14CxOJjD5xA/video.html
The cat was just checking out the snake, and then left when its curiosity was satisfied. Agreed, just a cat being a cat, no interest in the fawn at all.
Rat Snakes don't eat deer
most dangerous part of that video is all the poison ivy growing in your yard
lmao! so true.
I was looking at the poison ivy the whole time wondering if it was in the comments and yep, it's at the top. Lol I hate that stuff, you get covered in it several times growing up and you learn to spot it real quick.
Lol
I know right.....😂😂😂😂
Most boring video almost nodded off.
My dog Duke collects eggs everyday from the hen house, and no, he don't break them usually.
However, he kills every chick/egg eating Snake he encounters in the hen house. He has been bitten several times by Copperheads and has built up an immunity to their toxin. Old Duke,
is one of those once in a lifetime dogs I was fortunate to have, he died at the age of 13 years. R.I.P. old friend.
My dog 'collected' my flock's free range eggs, until one day I looked down and, seen from the top, he was nearly perfectly round. Diet time. Another sweet dog, very very old now. I treasure every day left with him. But I have relieved him of egg collecting duty.
FYI, you combined both present and past tense so until the end l thought Duke was alive. So sad now. RIP Duke.
LoL He didn't build an immunity. Very rare that a pet dies from a rattlesnake bite. Sure it will be painful and there will be needed recovery time but don't fool yourself.
@@jayryan7473 he said copperhead not rattle snake
Sounds like a good dog for sure! May he Rest in peace! Thanks.
Everybody is so busy commenting on how a black rat snake was no threat to the fawn, but did no-one notice the glaring misleading comments. He keeps pointing out that they had NO IDEA that there was a snake there, yet somehow he zooms in on the snake and the cat's interaction ... good job!
The zooming is done with video editing software afterwards.
Ilse Gräter Well brainiac...he obviously knew the snake was there by that point. He didn't know for a long bit of time though.
Right? I think he knew all along. Way to protect your cat!!
Yeah he's a bi..h
Why are all of yall hating? Just shut up already. Got nothing nice to say then dont speak at all.
I love how these folks did not interfere. The wild have their own set of rules. As for the cat, she is like my two male cats. They are free to roam as they please, they usually don’t go far. Plus, cats know how to pick and choose their battles.
Good observation, but I think you're in the minority! LOL. We get to see tons of wildlife interactions here for sure, thanks
I love happy endings thanks to the sweet kitty girl we got one
Well this sure was intense, but the biggest plot twist was that the only real threat turned out to be the poison ivy.
Lol.....The best comment of the century!
You deserve a sub from me on that one!
So there I was watching this thing, and all I could think is who in the F lets poison ivy grow that close to their house... Then I started thinking about all the ways to get rid of it (I ran a plant nursery), and the whole time... that sinister soundtrack was making it worse and worse. lol. Thank you for seeing it too =D
yes yes, I spotted the demonic plant sent straight from hell, right off the bat
djvi0lent Me, too!😂
Indeed. That Rat Snake had zero chance of making a meal out of that fawn.
I believe your cat was 100% protecting that fawn. You can tell by her body language. Once she felt the fawn was no longer in danger she left - Animals senses are a million times stronger than ours. Not only did the cat feel, hear, and smell the mother deer coming back through the woods before anyone saw her, SO did the Snake!!
Happy it was a Good ending for all!! 🐍💜🐱
"We had no idea the snake was there while filming" zooms in on snake
LnWolf89 I think they zoomed in editing. It’s very easy to do.
@@nights_over_egypt ahh true true lol.
i was wondering about that myself LOL
😂
Editing... after the fact... sheesh
I had a big yellow Tom when I was little. He caught a copperhead in atwixt his teeth. Copperhead was a baby, about 2 ft long. Sadly, the ole Tom died a couple days later. Never did see the bite marks, but, what can ye do? The ole Tom's name was Merlin, as I recall. I'm 84 now, musta been around 7 when that ole Tom died. Never forgot the ole fella. He was a loyal one.
@George I love this story! Good job, Tomcat!!! I love tabbys ❤️
That poor fawn was just chanting "Mama said stay here!". OVER & OVER!
bellesmom2012 in Bambis voice!!!
YES! Perfect!
bellesmom2012 Lol! Funny.
He was us as a kid he thought there was a monster in the bushes and figures if I don't move it won't see me lol...remember as a kid I would get my bed ready walk to the light switch turn it off and sprint to the bed and get under covers so nothing could get me lol
How amazing to be able to watch all of that from your window! My favorite part was watching the fawn nurse. Give that sweet cat a treat !!!
The music is the only ominous thing in this video. Still, to have that much action in your back yard ,on any given day is cool.
My past cats would go for the snake's tail until it got terrified and ran (for a snake) off. Depending on how hungry or big the snake was, there were sometimes a lot of back and forth battling till the cat won and the snake quickly left. Cats can be very good watchdogs!
[Edited for grammar.]
"their where"???
Try there were instead.
"Snake ran off"! As in a Looney Toons cartoon, the snake suddenly extrudes several legs and sprints away! I can't get that vision out of my head!
Yes you'd want couple pets like that around the house if you live down under
Cats aren't dogs...FAKE NEWS..LMAO
My male cat used to play with rattle snakes! No deaths on either side . . . but I got so nervous I converted him to an indoor cat.
Denys A That’s a tough cat!
While the rat snake posed no threat to the fawn, the cat doesnt know that.
Much ado about nothing, that safari adventure music is a hoot! Our cat grabbed 2 non venemous snakes from our back yard and took them into the garage through her little kitty door. Luckily my wife walked into the garage and saw them. I put on gloves and put them back in the bushes where they crawled away, the cat hadn't bitten them too deeply so they could still flee. We locked her inside for 20-30 minutes so they'd get far enough away not to be retaken, LOL.
That snake was setting a trap for your cat. Obviously the snake read a psych profile on your cat's fondness of deer and used the fawn as bait. I've seen this before, many times.
Mith. That’s incredible if the snake 🐍 is that intelligent
Lmaooooo!!!!!
Ha!!!!! Glad to see someone is experienced enough to see what was really happening....
Hilarious
That's what I was thinking and I'm prey sure that around the 3:37 Mark I saw a chalk board in the background where the snakes plan was all drawn out.
That cats been watching too much Rikki Tikki Tavi! 🦡
Favorite childhood book
@@CorpseXotics back in my elementary school early 80's on rainy days since we couldn't go out on the playground they'd play the movie in the auditorium for us. Good times..
SHINARD WOODY Thank you! I had forgotten Rikki T T 🤗
Snake was also just curious. No way a rat snake could eat this deer
Robert Wynn , that's why the cat left the snake alone. The snake told the cat he was just curious. 🙄
I agree. The snake sensed a heat signature and went to check it out. After it was deemed too big the snake would've left. But it is cool that the cat intervened. We too have a lot of deer and our cats have befriended them. Gives hope to the scripture "The lion shall lay down with the lamb"
The cat is closer to the right size but still to big.
inter-species bi-curious. 😁
Sorry to disagree. You are wrong.
That was great. Good job on telling the story. And yes I think the cat was aware. Awesome cat.
That was a great video you got. I love all animals. This video was unique to have your cat, a baby fawn, a snake and than the fawn nursing. Nature at it’s best. I hope you have acreage. You’re very fortunate to have wildlife in your backyard. Keep the videos coming.
A rat snake couldn't do anything to either one of those animals, six foot or not. It eats small rodents and birds.
True
seriously
That's what I was wondering; what could he possibly do?
Yes I think that was the biggest joke I've ever seen I don't even think the deer was real and never did even move an ear or nothing as a biggest joke you must be hard up for something amuse yourself read the comments and see what a joke you created
@Matt kawoski So what? I've eaten many a Beaver.
🐱 Thank you kitty for protecting the fawn. A happy ending.🐾
Elizabeth Torres I came to the comments before watching cuz I couldn't bear to watch kitty or fawn get hurt lol so thank u
Deer and domestic cats get along just fine. We have some outside cats who have adopted us. We see them laying in the grass next to deer at the edge of out wooded area. We also see them greeting each other by touching noses. So it doesn’t surprise me that a cat would protect a fawn.
5:06 - That awkward moment when the stalker realizes their being stalked. lol
😍
Blue Brick Wall
They’re*
Give up, nobody even knows about decent grammar any more. Or anymore? I blame the USA education system. Where is it ranked in the world today?
Wow! Who sees a snake, a fawn, and a cat so close together! You really lucked out catching it all on video! Good job! Beautiful kitty!
Thank you we appreciate it
Brave cat👏! She was clearly trying to alert you to the menace hoping to get you come help her to protect the baby fawn and your family. I’m happy she decided not to fight that snake on her own this time! Our cat in So.California fought a 3-foot rattle snake and was severely bitten in her face; she barely survived it while the vet wasn’t of much help...
Hopefully you made that snake leave, and will be checking your land for returns of their kind.
Thank you for this rare story, and especially for the most precious heart-throbbing final scene of Mom Deer breastfeeding her baby Fawn! So precious!!
I think you’re right, the cat has a benevolent protective nature, maybe she was trying to alert the master. And the fawn is adorable!
Beautiful baby, cat deserved an award
Spoiler alert: the cat doesn't do s***... 10 min I'll never get back
Really? Thanks for the heads up
Typical cat!
Let's face it, you weren't gonna do anything productive with that 10 minutes anyway. SIT DOWN.
So a snake a fawn and a cat walk into a bar one day ....😂
😄
....and everyone loses 10:27 from their lives which they will never get back.
@Outhouse John lol
Lmao....
I'm truly Fawned of the joke.
That's one very blessed kitty. The use of one of her 9 lives averted.🌹🐾🐾💜🐾🐾🌹
Nice footage! I like how confident the cat was, it was withing 2.5 feet it seemed from the snake. Close to striking distance and the cat still looked away in the other direction a couple of times.
Good kitty! ❤️😻🐈🥇🐍
I wuv cats😍😍😍😍😻😻😻
The hunter is hunted! What a good kitty!!
Scary! I was so worried for the fawn and the cat!😰 Thank you to let us know that they both were safe!
I think u went overboard with the theme music
_
I think they know that, and that’s their point.
@@averat84 no they really thought their cat was some major saviour refer to his "backstory"
Agreed. For sure.
I think you went overboard with the comments
Fun video, but OMG the poison Ivy! I got itchy just watching it!
Intense moments there... Did that poison ivy make anyone else feel all itchy? Lol
I can roll in poison ivy or oak with no adverse affects. Been handling it with bare hands for about 48 years. I have no idea why.
Oh good grief I have no idea what poison ivy looks like! I'm bound to wind up in a pickle someday. Yikes!
I missed the part where the cat intervened. Saw lots of the cat observing.
Well, she purposefully made her way in between the snake and fawn, hissed at it... Maybe no fight, but she did make an effort..
Suspenseful. Your cat was trying to get snake to follow her and deter its attention away from fawn. It’s positioning made that clear. Good kitty. Cats aren’t usually so empathetic, yours is a peach!
5:58. Cat looks back at you guys like " are you seeing this, this snake is friggin huge!"
yeah that's probably right! lol Can't believe we did not pick up on the snake yet at that point!
It's understandable, though: from that distance, 4he snake looks like a big branch!
Look again, that is the one last look of I Love You to his owner before he put his life at risk for the fawn, 100%
Kapper Outdoors you zoomed right in on its head moving all around and zoomed back to the snake tonnes of times, who are you trying to fool man.
It looked to me like she was saying Hey Assholes you wanna come help us here?" Lol. She actually looked back like 3 times with that look lol
Scariest part of the video was the unnecessary music.
u r so right...I kept waiting for something to jump off and it never did...what a waste of my time,,..
and really long narration and text over the video when it finally did start, containing some more less than expert observations.
Awe B.E.
Not really a waste...you got to watch a fawn and kitten survive a hungry snake and listen to some da da duhhhh music...lol!!
But seriously did you see how twitchy the cat was to where her skin/fur on her hind area jumped several times!??! I think it was likely in reaction to vibrations/energy from the snake, now that is cool!!! I wondered if it would get to the the point of the snake lunging, but nope! Just rejoice that the fawn and kitty survived and the snake went away hungry, it moved on and hopefully found a rat like it was supposed to eat anyway!!!
Not really scary, but unnecessary, and it's the most over-used music on CZcams!
Real Dudes Party Nude
LOl!!! Are you a real dude? Do you party nude? What about all of that music noise going on when you are partying? And just what kind of party are you referring to? A one on one party in an intimate space and intimate way or do you refer to big partys, loud music lots of people?? Just curious, how you can be dissing this music when you likely like your music loud and proud so what is the difference, hmmmm?
Gripers about the music...really? It's just a video, just music and I have heard 10 times worse!!! Why do certain people have to be negative, be a downer?????? I pray you aren't a downer! Somehow I don't thnk you really are!!! I hope this helps you to think about you comments in the future and be positive unless someone really is evil and your calling them out for what they are...thatis different, otherwise it's just being negative, a downer, a complainer
I feel like if I blink im gonna miss somthing😁😁
I wish I would have blinked so I could pretend the video was more than a waste of time
I wasn't he seems way. I turned because I thought I heard something, then turned back quickly to make sure it was still in stare down mode.
The dramatic music was a nice touch lol
Please pass the Visine!!
I often marvel at the fearlessness of house cats.
They don't seem to know just how small they are.
The title of this video should be, "Cats are curious.". The cat didn't intervene by any definition of the word.
Cat couldnt find a vantage point and tried to lure the snake to where she had the advantage cats are wise if she had lured that snake into the open it wouldve been dead
My cat boxed a 6 foot timber rattler...this cat is a little older and decided not worth the risk
nope. She meant to eat it.
Young Frankenstein technically she did she diverted the snakes attention away from the fawn.
@@iantawashington-allotey9913 No, the cat didn't! After the cat retreated, the snake continued sizing up the fawn, thought better of it (fawn being too large) then went in search of the feline.
It’s a rat snake dude, it’s not poisonous & can’t eat a fawn!
They aren’t even an aggressive species
Still a great video
Look at 9:34. You will get your answer.
It was rare to see something like that is the point!
The cat doesnt know that. She just knows something she considers dangerous is coming near her friends.
the end where the calf is feeding is the BEST.
That was his father though....
I was finally able to relax
It's not a calf
@@philthayer4087 lmao you gay af
hi goodbye You know what Phil Thayer meant by ‘calf’; the ‘father’ bit, I don’t get tho...
Hey Kap! Great video!! Sorry about the negative comments. I really enjoyed the vid!! I guess a lot of people out there don’t appreciate how rare that situation is and do appreciate it the reality of it.please keep bringing it despite the negativity! Thanks!
Cool cat taking care of business. 😎
Very cool. There's no doubt the cat appeared to be stepping in to either distract or alert the fawn.
Good Lord that is a very large snake. It looks like its 8 ft.
Good Kitty !
W
Fascinating. Great catch, even if you didn't realize immediately what you were filming. Cats are incredibly smart, probably more smart then they get credit for... granted your cat also has an intriguing relationship with wild deer, never heard of such a thing!
Also, way to respect BOTH wild animals. Snakes are like pit bulls, many folks give them a bad rep right off the bat. These large constrictors (rat, king, bull/pine snakes etc) control the rodent population so well-- and like the majority of snakes in our country are harmless.
Yep. I agree. Kinda neat to see a full grown Rat snake
Dude, I could not breath for 10mins. This is what CZcams was invented for. @8:00 I think the cat was letting the fawn know that it will be OK. The Cat was like "Snake, I will scratch your eyes out" lol Seriously though, fascinating to watch wild 'Fauna' in action.... Sorry, had to slip that in. Lol Great job! 🤗
The cat wasn't protecting the fawn... It was just being a curious cat like they always are. It walked away when it lost interest
Lol. He said the snake departed the area. A snake that size doesn't leave. It's still there, that is why it is that size. It's great because it keeps pesky rodents away. Just leave it alone. It is helping you out.
Absolutely, Aland! I allow three of these rat snakes to live on my property. They keep the vipers and mice away mice and occasionally eat my chicken eggs (which is a small price to pay). Lately in this triple digit heat, one has come up to my porch for water, and gets a drink of cold water straight from a can that I hold to his mouth. They are extremely used to us and we do not touch them or try to "pet" them. I measured the shed skin from one of them and it measured out 78 inches.
Glad the cat saved the fawn. Could of been a real Catastrophe
Thank you very very much for your posting this!🐾
The snake sensed the heat from the fawn and went over to investigate. If a snake thinks that the target is too large, then it will back off and leave. It was looking for a mouse, maybe a young bird out of the nest, or another small rodent. Then the snake made advancements on the cat, again sensing the heat but not knowing the size of it. Sooner or later the snake will get lucky. That is what it does.
@George Sealy omg scary!!!
Not a pit viper doesn't sense heat plus the cat and fawn are way too big for a rat snake to eat
Cat's like 'cmon man, RUN!'
What suspense?!! Loved it! New respect for cats.
Hero cat, I had a couple of those, decided a cat is really a German Shepherd masquerading as a cat. Truly. Hug him for me! Sweet, wonderful film. You are wonderful people.
That snake is looking for rats and mice.
The cat doesn't like the competition. A snake with rats on its breath!
I caught poison ivy just watching the cat walking in it!!
The owners probably caught it from the oils getting on the cats fur and then rubbing the cat
Semper Fi! I know the crap grows like mad and eats round up for dinner!
@@kapperoutdoors Dissolve 1 cup of salt in 1 gallon of water and add in 1 tablespoon of dish soap. Mix well, pour into a water sprayer, and spray away. Spraying this mixture will kill all plantgrowth it comes into contact with, so be sure you're spraying only the poison ivy.
@Jon P. - my thought EXACTLY as I started scratching just from watching the cat walk into the leaves.
Oh God! Poison ivy is horrible! If you're allergic that is, which I am.
You have captured a rare video of wildlife happenings! In light of the fact you didn’t know the snake was there, amazing that it was all framed so well! That was wonderful to watch and I think your suppositions were right on! Thanks for that! Fascinating!
I took in a farm cat and it took a while to get him to give up the bib overalls.
Cats are cool, every move they make is calculated. The tail indicator was telling the woman “Not Now”.
Your cat's a mighty hero
The Fawn was never in danger from the snake as it was indeed to big, a snake will only strike when threatened or to feed. As for the cat,also too big,of course the snake would strike if the cat attacked,but the cat knew that too.
The cat didn't intervene. The snake changed its mind. Where's the 'exciting' story?
Kinda thinking the same thing. Actually...its a bad title for the video. Not even sure that the cat realized the snake was there and/or that it was going to do anything about it. Maybe scare away the fawn? Either way, the cat wasn't willing to challenge the snake (intervene) too much, which is why the cat got away from both.
Click bate bro
James Friery, intervened my foot! Touche!
We get deer this close to our house, my husband and I have learned more about deer in the 4 years we have lived here, then all the 25 years we spend hunting and reading books about deer. It's amazing and so cool to be able to watch them as much as we do, my husband says "they (deer) don't live on our property, we live on their property "
You make a very good point! People don't always believe me when I say we have a tremendous amount of experience not just seeing a fleeting deer or two, but the daily interactions between them all. It is a lot different than most hunting, where you just get a short glimpse of a few deer. Congratulations!
@@kapperoutdoors yes, so true.
All of us that have the opportunity like this are very blessed, to see and kinda study the interactions, of deer is so very interesting. 👍🇺🇲 😊
Cats are very smart. To the extend that they know well, how to turn us to into their life time servants or they will adapt a neighbor! Guess the motherhood instinct in cat was at the threshold and had to do something, yet not to risk her own. Love cats.
DJ: I have had cats all through my life so I can read their body language. This cat went directly for snake and not fawn. Her body language, clearly tells me, she is neither in attach / hunt mode, nor in a joyful situation. She had a task and I really want to agree that she had an intention of helping the young one, cuz she new the snakes are dangerous. If you see enough of wildlife, you see always nursing parents, try their best (At times even at the cost of their own life) to divert the bigger invader to their offspring's and nest, away from that location. And they do all they can, to achieve this. That is all that I see here, only she wan not the mother of this child but indeed a mother at heart.
We genetically engineered THEM, not they, US. You've got to be just joking.
The snake thought he was protecting the deer from the cat.
The suspense was freakin' KILLING me!! LOL!
The second I saw the cat"s tail movement & slow paw positioning I knew something was kicking off. Cat called mother then backed off - mission accomplished
LOL, good assessment!
Rat snakes are non-venomous. They feed on mice and birds. It's all good. :)
Like the cat knew that. Smdh
Rat snakes also eat copperhead snakes
This is an amazing video of an extraordinary cat!! I like the way it looked back at the camera as if yo say, “guys I could use a little help here!” I agree she was protecting the fawn and her movements were very heroic!! Thank you for sharing!
yeah, funny looking back. We were calling her to try to get her away from the fawn, at that point we really had no idea there was even a snake there! Thanks.
Ya, that's what I thought, guys can you come out here, I could use a little help
A little tighter editing, less dramatic soundtrack, and fewer breathless exultations attempting to convince us of interpecies armageddon would've gone a long way toward deflecting the snark in the comments.
The snake happened to come upon the fawn. The cat happened to come upon the snake. The cat couldn't care less about the fawn. The snake couldn't care less about the cat. The fawn couldn't care less about any of them. Move along, move along.
I wished I read this comment before I wasted time watching the vid.
Loved the video. Classics newborn fawn behavior. We lived in the Pocono Mountains for 12 yrs. We had many many fawns born on our property. They will not move when first born. They have no smell for 10-14 days. And we have several videos of newborns nursing. We love it!!! Nice job!!
Thank you very much, we appreciate it!
That snake couldn’t do anything with that fawn but the cat didn’t know that.
That snake had about as much of an intention of eating one of those trees as it did of eating that fawn. The cat was merely curious. The story line is fictitious.
I have lived my whole life in rual NC, and the fawns biggest worry would be cyote or wild dogs !
Steven Featherstone ... Or bad spelling.
I had to watch this I had a cat that was good friends with my python. They actually enjoy and choose to have company with each other. It was amazing
Wow that is pretty cool!! Thanks
That nonpoisonous snake couldn't hurt that fawn. Lol
Tell the cats that
Non VENOMOUS. Snakes aren't poisonous.
Thank goodness baby dear is OK. Love the cute cat.
Mama Kitty!
IloveJC love yes, plus thank God the DEER was alright too huh... 😐
Mr. & Mrs Kapper i sure hope you have everything around the house sealed up so mice and snakes don't get in. Thank god for the brave kitty.
So far so good let's hope Ryan sealed it up nice and tight like we asked for:-)
That is a very trusting deer to keep her fawn that close to humans.
Yep, but I think she knows predators don't often venture too close to the house
"captured it on accident" LOL
Ac
Are kidding me that snake knows the fawn is to large to be consumed. It probably senses the heat given off by the fawn. But the cat another story.
Cat is even too big, like 5 times too big.
That's not what happened at all. Snakes will not consume a large pray when there is danger in the area because they become very vulnerable to attack, especially while eating they cant move or defend themselves. Just the cat being nearby made the snake "think" twice.
the music somehow..i wait till the end, and nothing happen..
I was in total suspense 🤭 I thought at some point the cat was definitely going to get bit. But they possess the righting ability 👌🤣
The fawn's protective coloration works well. It's hard to see it until the camera zooms in.
That’s so cool!! Smart cat, thank god the mama deer came back& would have been bad idea for snake
Wtf I was on the edge of my seat for 4 minutes! Lmao
I cannot believe at 10:27 your cat looked back! I wouldn't think she would take her eyes off the snake at all! Cats are crazy they'll fight anything!...I can't believe that fawn just sits there. I guess she's like ohhh the cats got this lol . I think the snake decided the mother was too big lol
Good questions for sure!! Would love to know what the critters are thinking at times like this!!! Thanks
I was hoping that snake would get some claws for it's arrogance
yoshiotamura he knew better. Didn’t have a great choice that time. Hoofs or claws. Lol
What "arrogance"? And why would you hope the snake got some claws? Do you think snakes are evil or something?
Forget the snake! Your cat is walking through poison ivy!
I'd like for someone to explain how a non-poisonous constrictor that normally eats very small animals is a threat to ANYTHING the size of a cat or fawn. It's interesting that the snake is checking out the fawn, but this is a case were size matters and nothing dangerous is going on.
Venomous, not poisonous.
Snakes can open their mouths to a VERY great extent, so a black rat snake could conceivably eat a cat, but cats aren't in their diet.
You missed the dramatic music. That stuff makes everything threatening. Didn't you feel the tension?
Doc Moore
yes that's what the cat
decided in the end,
cats are smart like that. 😻
donfishing
yep
I was sick with tension
What an anticlimax
Needed to run it off
Afterwards. 😼
Like others, I wasn’t convinced the rat snake was going to harm the fawn. My interest was the cats reaction.
yep that's OK, I thought it was just quite interesting to see thank you
What a beautiful story💕
It was just a story, not what was really taking place. If you want fantasy stories, go back to Disneyland.
Beautiful real life nature story none the less.
that was cool good cat
thanks. yeah that was amazing to see, great kitty! Can't believe her instincts....
What did the cat actually do? Walks over, sniffs around and walks away. Big whoop!
Wonderful cat: wonderful video. Thanks for showing.
Most domesticated cats are deathly afraid of snakes you have one brave cat sir
