10 year old python excape story...

So its feeding day for my almost 10yo normal...it had been a little bit longer than usual since his last meal so I got the biggest rat in the store...so I go thru the scenting and offering he took as always no prob...but usually after his big meals patty gets really sluggish and lazy so I dint put the locks on the top so then I find the take empty an hour later...my scerch ensues...about and 20 min in I decide to use the restroom and to my suprise there's goes patty 6 feet off the ground coild on a cabinet...I was super happy....I jus got a new respect for him...and now I kno no time is safe to keep the caged unlocked....
