Video: Rescuers force python to regurgitate pet cat in disturbing footage
Everyone loves their pets and cherish the sight of their fluffy companions the moment they step inside the house. But these creatures are also vulnerable to mishaps and some unfortunate incidents can lead to heartbreaking tragedies.
A woman in Thailand who came home expecting to see her cat was shocked to find that it had been swallowed by a huge snake before the serpent curled up under the kitchen sink to digest the 3-kg feline. The horrified owner called the police and two policemen rushed to the spot along with a team of rescuers.
The team moved the snake (with a bulge in its stomach) following which they twisted and pushed at it's body until the python was forced to regurgitate the cat. The blood curdling scenes were caught on camera.
The cat, however, had died.
The woman named Saowarak Charoen was devastated after losing the cat and buried it in the garden. Meanwhile the five-metre-long snake was released back into the wild by authorities.
