    She's alive!!!!!!

    I can't even believe it!!!! My wild caught flame just turned up!!! Upstairs!!! In my brothers room!!! In his best friends shorts!!! That he was wearing at the time!!! They said he thought he felt something fall when he stood up but he didn't bother to look and a moment later my cat freaked out and was able to bite her once down just above her vent before they rushed her down to me. She has two small wounds on the sides of her vent that are fresh and there was a little blood coming from them and her vent but it stopped bleeding almost instantly. I of course slathered it In antibiotic ointment after letting her drink. She looks good otherwise.... I am so happy to see her I'm shaking.... I've got her on paper toweling in the rack system with a brand new hide and bowl.... I'm not going to feed her until these wounds heal up some... Don't want fecal matter near them!!!! Pics of her wounds coming tonigt!!!!

    Fantastic!! I'm glad you have your snake back. I know exactly how losing a snake can feel.

    Fantastic! Glad to hear she's fine!

    Although, I must say, finding a snake in my shorts would probably just reinstate my ophidiophobia. Better him than me.

    Speaking of returned escapees, did you ever get that one rat snake into a program for his drinking problem?
