If you've got a child, you know what it's like when they scare the crap out of you! For me if was when my daughter got into my red lipstick and when I walked into the room, I thought she was covered in blood.

Well, pet-parents feel the complete same way when it comes to their beloved fur-babies! In fact, there's an entire thread on the topic on Reddit about it!

Living in Australia, my cats can be extra scary. One day I was in my living room and my rag-doll cat walked in and dropped A SNAKE at my feet! This wasn't a prank either, it was a real baby snake.
