I too know what you mean. Every weekend I see my grandmother, she asks how many snakes I have. Like it changes from week to week. And every time I tell her 25, she gets this horrified look on her face. And ultimately the question is next: "Why?!" The next question is: "Do they run around the house?"
Lets count the ways:
They don't make noise, they don't smell, I don't have to clean up after them everyday, they eat once a week, I clean them out once a week, they stay where they're supposed to, they don't knock over my houseplants, poo on the floor, cough up hairballs, have to go outside in all sorts of weather.
In short, they're very easy pets to deal with. Which is what makes it possible to have such a large number of them in a collection. I can't imagine having to take care of 20+ cats or dogs. It'd be a complete zoo for sure.
