Tatzlpones tend to inspect each and every living creature they encounter by swallowing and spitting them back out. It is important to discourage this behavior in your pet tatzlpone at a young age. Refrain from hitting your tatzlpone and instead scold him/her with a stern voice until he/she uncoils and be sure to provide lots of positive reinforcement when your tatzlpone refrains from doing this.

It is also important to not confuse this behavior with when a tatzlpone simply wraps it's coils around someone. This is a simple show of affection, akin to a hug, and should not be discouraged as it can cause your tatzlpone to become fearful around others.
