If that's a behavior they do to kittens, I can see that being the case.

If anything, it's the cat who's anthrop... uh... felynomorphizing the snek

“Not supposed to anthropomorphize animals”

Furries would like a word with you.

When this was posted on Reddit, people explained that the cat probably sees the snake as prey, and so brings it to the place where he/she eats prey.

if that's the video i'm thinking of, that was my uncle and he did not know he was supposed to be afraid of leopard seals.

Can't find a video, gonna assume it's the video explaining this? Anyways found this article which was very cool to read: https://awesomeocean.com/guest-columns/natgeo-photographer-seal/
