Have any of you chaps with a Rat Snake ever heard of one 'purring'?
Mirkey was doing his usual face hugger the other day and as he was pretty close to my ear I heard him make a very quiet, high pitched purr or croak! It wasn't an RI type of wheeze in sync with his breathing. It was more like a reflex to feeling me swallow. His tail was wrapped around my neck and he reacted by slightly constricting and giving me a purr. 
I can only describe it like one of these almost silent yamming miaows you get from a young kitten.
Maybe I'm going mad due to oxygen starvation by getting throttled but thought I'd ask before they wheech me off to the funny farm.

| Don't know about rat snakes but I'm sure one of adult corns talks to us. He makes a very quiet little noise sort of a hiss but not a hiss, if you what I mean. |

I don't think so Mamma. I definitely heard Mirkey croak "I don't like cheese and jam sannies!!"  |
