I too lost one to an escape. He got out in my car and crawled up in the dash where he died.

Re: RIP to our old friends

escapes really suck, no closure. The wondering drives me nuts.

Re: RIP to our old friends

Here's to my little Mei-Li. 2008 mandarin ratsnake female. She got out 3 times, and every time I tried a different, more escape-proof container. One night about two months ago my fiance failed to check the snake room door after making his nightly rounds and the latch didn't catch. The cats got in the room and knocked over the cage and she got out and I found her dead under the dining room table the next day. No more tiny little snakes for me!

It's ok. It was hard and I still miss her, but it was a freak accident. I have replaced the latch assembly on that door and now double-check it myself every night to make sure it's secure.
