Coco is like that lady that survived multiple ship sinkings. She ain’t going anywhere until she’s good and ready! Glad she is okay ❤

Coco is such a trooper! First she kicked cancers butt and now she’s lived through a snake bite

Rescued from a tree, FIP, cancer, rattle snake. This cat is too powerful. Check for any upcoming superpowers! Though I think she already has some 🖤 glad she’s okay.

My gosh. FIP, Cancer AND a rattlesnake bite? 😭 This really shows her resilience, but more than anything it shows your absolutely amazing above-and-beyond care. 💜

You've got a titanium cat there. Coco is like that quote about Teddy Roosevelt, if death comes it'll have to take her sleeping because it won't survive if she's awake.

Oh no, poor Coco. Between her cancer and the snake bite, she's been through so much. Glad she survived

Kitten lady, I don't know if you'll see this, but I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. My cat had FIP. Your video gave me the courage and knowledge I needed to save him. He has cleared observation. I also want to say hello to coco. She's been through so much it's amazing. That cats will to live must be very strong, because she knows she's loved so much by you

Coco has more than the average 9 lives. 💜

This cat has more than one guardian angel.

I just recently lost one of my pups to a rattlesnake because i wasn’t prepared enough to know what to do for him or what to look for so thank you for making this video so people can be better prepared to act in emergency situations like these ❤ im glad your baby is okay i was here when you first rescued coco and i always thought she was a trooper.

Thank you for not demonizing the snake, oftentimes snakes are seen as evil and bad but they’re just trying to stay safe! So glad Coco is okay

I love that Andrew just *happened* to have venomous snake tools on hand! 😂

Wow, that audio is haunting. So glad you saw it happen, and were able to get her treatment so quickly.

I have never been happier to live in a place with no venemous snakes. So happy Coco is thriving and doing okay!

Coco is a fuzzy miracle. Can't believe what she has survived to date. Thank goodness she is O.K.

Just goes to show, even the "safe" spaces our beloved animals inhabit can become dangerous in seconds. Thank you for sharing Coco's story. Give her lots of kisses from us all! Thank you for ensuring the snake's safety, too. The little guy was probably terrified as well.

Aww poor Coco, She's been through so much the last few years. I'm so glad she survived.💙

Oh my goodness! What a terrifying experience, I am SO happy that coco survived. I would like to build a (snake proof!!) catio someday for supervised enrichment, but wildlife like venomous snakes and coyotes are among the biggest reasons I don't allow my cats to go outside!! Lost too many childhood cats to vehicles and "disappearances" 😭 I would be so devastated if my babies ever got hurt, as an adult now I take my responsibility for their safety very seriously! And thankfully despite being indoor/outdoor cats before we adopted them, they are both perfectly happy indoor cats now-they much prefer demanding affection and cuddles from us rather than going outside 🥺 Anyway, good work Hannah! Your vigilance and preparedness saved Coco's life!!

Oh God. That horrible cold feeling in your chest when something serious happens and you have to call an emergency to the vets. I feel for you. Thank goodness coco is alright. My cats always seem to have emergencies when most vets are closed on National holidays. It's good to have a 24 hour clinic in your phone as well

I love how you point out that the snake wasn't acting out of malice and it's best for both parties that they can't get into the catio. You have so much empathy for every being and it's just beautiful to see. (Also, "danger noodle" lol)

It's not a good thing I live in Australia and my cat was bit by a brown snake ,by the time we got to her she couldn't walk . We took her to the vet. The doctor put her on a drip and didn't need antivenom, but an overnight at the vet on the drip, she came good

I'm glad your cat is okay. :) Thanks for being snake positive.

Kitties gotta be careful around the danger noodles.

My cat was bitten by a brown snake about a year ago, and one wallet consuming black hole later she's still here to tell the tale. Since we didn't see the snake or the confrontation ourselves, what saved our cat's life was noticing behavioural changes! I think many cats tend to hide or go to specific spots when they are sick, and for our cat that is her favourite spot outside next to the aviary. Normally if you go out to say hello to her, she'll jump up and come over for pats, but this time she didn't move an inch and I knew something was up. I didn't think it was a snake bite at first (I thought she might have eaten poison or something), but I am enterally grateful we decided to take her to the vet regardless, because we almost certainly would have lost her otherwise. Even despite the fact we caught on fairly early, she had to be cared for in the pet hospital on oxygen and IV for a few days, and lost a lot of muscle strength. She's a mostly indoor cat now, much to her displeasure. But that's what you get for taking on the second most poisonous snake in the world!

Oh my! I am so glad that Coco is okay. ❤ She is an absolute warrior for fighting off cancer and surviving the rattlesnake bite.

Oh no! Good to see she’s doing well.

Coco is a hardcore cat. Thankfully she was in safe hands and you guys acted so fast.

I am so glad Coco survived :)) I am glad the catio is now Snake proof and snake survived too and got relocated by Andrew.

6:46 thank you. I really appreciate that you understand the snake did nothing wrong. Snake is gonna snake, and Cat is going to Cat. No bad guy or blame necessary. Also, glad Coco is feeling better. She's definitely an iron kitty

Poor Coco's really been through it. I'm glad she's doing well.

Coco, cat of 9 x 9 lives! Happy you are okay, Coco! This is also a good reminder/lesson that rattlesnakes are born poisonous!

That was very insightful, I am so glad Coco is okay. You did really well! Also thank you for not blaming the Snake

I hadn't thought about keeping a cat carrier at the door in case of emergency! Will definitely be doing that from now on, thank you!

How terrifying!!! I'm so glad this turned out ok.

Coco has been thru so much - cancer, FIP, and now a rattlesnake bite?! She's such a trooper, I'm so glad she's ok!

Oh no, not Coco poor darling. Glad she's ok now.

Coco said, "Nope Rope, you gotta go". I am so glad that your fearless warrior is ok. But she is beginning to go through those nine lives very quickly. Mom and Dad need to have a sit down with her.

Wow, Coco really does have nine lives! She kicked cancer and now snakebite! Go Coco 🎉. And thanks for posting this Hannah, thank goodness for your quick reaction!

as someone who adores cats and reptiles, thank you so much for acknowledging that the snake was acting in self defense and safely relocating it! all animals are great, but not all animals are great in the same space. i'm so glad coco is okay :))

Illness: You aren’t so tough Coco: Hold my catnip

So glad coco’s okay. She’s been through enough after cancer and other health scares. Reminds me of my grandparents’ farm cat, Peekie. She faced things when the cards are stacked against her, yet she overcomes it in stride while protecting the farm. She’s nearly 20 years old if not over and still protects her farm kingdom, even though she slowed down and prefers sleeping the sun.

Keeping a carrier by the door ? Lol you’re the best. You’re the mother of all fur babies in the world. Gos bless you !!

My cat somehow had his claw behind his back and dragged the brown snake to my parents and they got rid of the brown snake and pringles was 100% fine but we took him to a vet just in case and he was fine lol

Coco is so tough. I’m glad she’s okay. 💗

Omg! The audio is intense! My heart is still racing. Aww, Coco. I am so glad you are okay. 🖤🖤🖤

Poor Coco. She is such a strong cat to have survived so much. I am glad that she survived.

So happy that you were OK Cocoa. No More Nope Ropes for you Cocoa.

Really, really happy Coco pulled through so quickly! I wonder if the snake being a baby might have also helped some, with less potent venom? Either way, very lucky you caught it so fast! And for those with dogs, my caution would be that if you have a back yard or go on nature walks, be careful of toads. For a few months with my last dog, we kept getting toads in the yard. The dog would want to take a lick from them and would instantly regret it. She foamed at the mouth and I would wash her mouth out with water and she then seemed fine, but it was always scary.

I didn't know that there was anti-venom for animals. Or that Vet Hospitals would be able to do that type of care. I really had no idea. Everyone has gaps of important unknown information. Thank you for filling this one for me. Thank you so much for the video.

Coco is the most resilient cat I think I have ever seen in my life

Honestly poor Coco she’s been through so very much give her lots of hugs love and kisses from me please. I love your furry family and Hubby too😉 Cheers cherieK 🦋🌈🐿🇦🇺

Another notch for Miss Coco's lengthy (!) survival tally. One tough cat and two fast and resourceful cat parents. Thanks for the video :)

Oh wow, that's super scary! So happy she's ok.

That small bit with a cat carrier near the door... True professional caregiver. Somehow it hit more that the 'turn off the video and rush to the vet' bit. Maybe because of the delayed understanding. I'm glad it ended up good!

Coco is a trooper, she's gone through so much and survives. Good thing you and Andrew noticed the snake.

Goodness! I’m so thankful she’s okay!

Les neuf vies du chat revue par Coco. Tant mieux qu'elle aille bien cette adorable choupinette 😻

I'm so glad that your sweet baby is ok. Since it was a baby snake, you probably have a nesting area nearby.

Coco is a mad lad, fighting cancer and a rattlesnakes. Andrew’s snake tattoo is looking real funny rn tho

She's Coco the Wonder Cat! All that can stop her now is the need to nap, closed doors and her own steely will. Live long and prosper, sweet Coco. Oof, I felt that panic set in as you realized Coco was playing with a snake. That split second switch to terror is potent pet parent nightmare fuel! Rattlers are so common here in Cali, I'd be surprised if at least half of animal hospitals in the state didn't carry rattler antivenin through the spring and summer months. Especially down south, where it gets and stays hotter so there are more active rattlesnakes for pets and working animals to come into contact with. Antivenin doesn't last long in a fridge, though, so places that need it most often require frequent re-supplies, which is primarily where the availability issue comes into this equation. Places that report a lot of bites are (understandably) prioritized to prevent liquid gold from going to waste. Snake-proofing the catio was an excellent idea, I'm gonna hafta pass the mesh idea along to a few friends with catios, so thank you for that solution! Nobody needs a rattlesnake in their catio, no matter how badly the cats wanna play with it.

Hannah, oh my God. I’m glad she’s o.k.! You and Andrew did a fantastic job! Poor Coco. She just wanted to make friends with, and play with the baby Rattlesnake.

Little bit of Aussie Advice for Coco.... "Don't play with the Nope Rope!" So glad Coco is ok, your quick response definitely was a major factor in the good outcome here.

Poor Coco has gone though so much...

In Mallorca we don't have venomous snakes, however people have been abandoning their pets snakes and even illegal venomous ones, there's always a possibility of one one entering my garden where my cat is of at the spayed colony I take care. I feel like, a bit hopeless unless see it and show it to some lucky formed vet 🙈 just wish for the best and remembering some tips i guess ❤

That’s one tough cat. She clearly has a will to live. I saw a guy who’s dog got but by a baby rattle snake. His owner was still walking it not realizing it was a rattle snake. My bf told them to get their dog to the emergency vet immediately. I hope that dog lived. It is scary to me because I had no clue we had rattle snakes around my town I thought they were more in the mountains and high desert.

I love her so much! So happy she’s okay 💕 she’s been through SO MUCH ✨

Coco is amazing. We need to study her generics. Beats cancer! Beats FIP Beats a snake bite! Coco is magic...with a very cool mama!

I’m so glad that Coco is ok, she really can’t catch a break the poor thing 😅 Also, thank you for taking care of the snake too and not harming them even when they hurt Coco, your kindness is very appreciated ❤

Coco survivor!!

I’m so glad Coco is doing good. You two are wonderful cat parents. Thank God for your fast action!

Aw Coco! I'm so happy it all went well.❤

Cancer, FIP, snakebite. That is one tough cat!! So glad it's a happy ending. One of the nice things about living in a northern plains state is there are no poisonous snakes here, and not much in the way of poisonous insects, scorpions, etc. either. Not that it's safe to let a cat out. Cities are still dangerous, and in rural areas there are plenty of predators. Our cats stay indoors.

Coco the miracle cat. Thank goodness she lives with awesome individuals ❤

We have been considering a catio but have been concerned about snakes getting in through the wire. On the mountain here in WV we have 2 poisonous snakes. We definitely keep an eye on them because of our great pyrenees. I dont think I would be comfortable with a catio unless it had good screening but cats are so hard on any we have found. So glad you were there and that Coco will be OK. Baby rattler bites can be worse than the big ones.

Coco sure is a surviver. How many lives does she have left by now? Good thing that you were there when it happened....!

Snakes can slither vertically, up many types of surfaces. It would seem that a tight mesh screen should be installed over the ENTIRE cattio enclosure. 🤔 As for your quick action, and Coco's recovery, such a happy story within a scary, warning video. Thanks for sharing the lesson. 👍

So glad the Vet had anti venom. Love you , Coco❤

Rattlesnakes can control the amount of venom they inject when they bite, and they will adjust it according to the size of their prey or the level of threat / anger that they are experiencing when being attacked.

Oh Coco, no playing with the danger noodles. I am so glad she is ok

I'm glad Coco survived. Give her a hug and a kiss for me.

Coco is spending lives like it's going out of fashion Coco slow down baby

You can also recognize a Rattle Snake from its eye shields (the lip over the eyes). We have lots of snakes at our property in the foothills west of Madera.

that audio grabbed me by the heart 😢 i had a panic a couple years ago when serenity got lily pollen on her face. i was inconsolable for days while she was in intensive care, the hospital giving me updates 2-3 times a day to confirm her wellbeing.

Coco, baby girl what you doing!!! You scared the sh!t out of everyone! I'm glad you guys worked quick because that sounded INTENSE. 😥

So scary sweet Coco. I am sorry you all went through that. 🖤

Always heard there is no such thing as luck. It where preparedness meets opportunity and Ms. Hannah is prepared! ❤

Audio is chilling. So glad Coco was treated in time.

Oh my...that must have caused a minor heart attack seeing cocoa get bitten by a snake. I would be crying if my cat did on the way to the hospital. Thank goodness cocoa is ok!!

Glad all is well!!

Coco is a legend!!! Absolutely epic….

No rattlesnakes here, except one that's water loving and Kit doesn't go out, but if she did? She loathes wet.. Thank goodness. I would have lost it and been sobbing. The babies have stronger venom.

i'm so glad coco survived

This is an extremely important PSA about catios too! Making sure that you protect your cats from larger predators but also smaller ones too!

She's a real warrior

Venomous snake bites usually don't hurt, the venom hurts but the actual bite doesn't. I didn't even feel it when I was bitten as a small child, age 4, (without snake ID I couldn't have antivenom, so I had steroids and anti-inflamatory meds). I was fine in the end.

Oh my gosh that audio was horrifying. Thank you for educating us!

So glad Coco's okay. She's a gutsy little trouper indeed. Also glad you knew to call ahead. Not all vets will have the antivenin, and it may shift seasonally. Best of luck to both of you. Now take a deep breath and hopefully you can stop shaking.

Coco is the equivalent of a little old lady in her rocking chair with a machine gun. So happy that she’s doing well, and thank you for understanding that the snake was only doing what it knew how to do. ❤

The audio alone started to make me cry and sake My heart sink. It was like it happen to my baby. I actually had to pause the video to calm down and catch a breath. Because my kitty is my everything. He is all I have along with my sewing. I don't have family or even friends.

OMG that poor cat Coco has the worst luck. I'm glad she has you to keep her alive .
