Today, after a week of searching, I found my escaped snake. In my umbrella, outside, after opening it over my head. FML

Just so you all know, I am not afraid of my pet snake. The FML was a mixture of a) the snake had been in an obvious hiding place, a dark enclosed space, all along. And b) because anything that falls on your bloody head outside is going to give you a fright! He is healthy and happy, he didn't die, and has not escaped since! :) And as for all the St.Patrick comments.... 'driving the snakes out of Ireland' was a metaphor for the Catholics driving all of the Pagans out of Ireland. Of course there are real snakes here.... actually pagans too. Well there ya go! lol :) x

YDI for having a snake to begin with. If you can't take care of it without losing it, you shouldn't have one to begin with.

Guess you shouldn't own anything ever, huh?

You know sometimes people lose their dogs too. Guess they shouldn't own them either. I suppose you've never lost anything before.

I own hedgehogs and they have snuck out of their cages before and hidden under multiple bed. The point is is animals are smart and sometimes they are too smart for their own good. It does not make you a bad pet owner it makes you have to play an intense game of hide n seek. If a pet hiding from you makes you a bad pet owner than you probably shouldn't get one because your bad attitude would have a human hiding from you too.

only slnut cases will have snakes for pet

As a snake momma. I know the feeling.

I had an albino Burmese Python- she escaped frequently- a regular Houdini! 2 times she dared the living life out of me. 1. I came home and she was snuggling with the cat. I lost 3 lives right there. Turns out they are BFF's though and where just sleeping. 2. Was moving. She pulled a Houdini I couldn't find her.. Until I started packing the kitchen and grabbed what I thought was the corn oil until it moved. I was talking to my friend about how worried I was that I couldn't find her... Lol.. Yeah.. I jumped clean outta my skin. You just don't expect the corn oil to be warm and to move when you touch it. Orin lived to a ripe old age and relished finding ways out of her enclosures until the very end.
