The Most Unlikely of Friends

Meet Gohan and Aochan. Gohan, who’s name means meal in Japanese was dropped into Aochan’s cage last October to serve out the dark humor of his name’s sake.
Only problem was, Aochan was apparently in greater need of companionship than food, and the two have been friends ever since. Grab the kids — it’s a touching story the whole family’s sure to enjoy.
Looking at the picture, my first reaction was, “Of course. The snake is getting ready to shed (cloudy eyes)! They don’t eat at that time.”
But the story shows that Aochan has had lots of opportunity to eat Gohan.
The really interesting thing is a hamster making friends with a snake…
