    And you also are the one who told me you leave your snakes out at night to sleep with you. I really hope you find your baby, and you can learn from your mistakes.

    Sounds like a lack of responsibility to me.

    Yea, its a total lack of responsibility. I do hope you find her, but if you don't I wont have the slightest bit of sympathy for you.

    I would work at getting your car taken apart as soon as possible. If it was a hot day and you let it go till night time, she'll find a way out, and then she'll be lost forever, espcially when concrete retains heat so well.

    Really, all the best, but its your own fault.

    Wow guys... way to be harsh. Don't you think he already feels bad about losing her? The one time I had a girl get out, I felt so horrible that I really didn't need anyone telling me that it was my fault...I knew that, what I needed was some encouragement.

    So, to harm, I hope you find your girl. Personally I'd have that dash off in a heart beat. I don't know about your car, but with my truck (the POS that it is) I'm able to get the dash off with a screwdriver and some searching to find the right screws. Maybe that way you won't have to drive anywhere. Good luck to you!

I'm not sure if you can roll down the window with out her escaping?

    The one I lost was behind the glove box also.

    What I'm not understanding is why you took delivery of your snake without even having your tank set up for it. You don't buy your snake then go get a setup for it. You get the environment perfect for it, THEN you bring your snake home.
    The way I see it, there is a string of absolute No-No's that took place that all contributed to the loss of your new pet. When I transport snakes in pillowcases, I double knot the opening and then use baling wire below the knots to ensure there is absolutely no room for the snake to escape.
    I sincerely hope you find your pet, but more than that, I really hope you've learned a valuable lesson about all this. On a whim, I'd listen to your local radio stations too. You never know, but if your snake escaped from your car, it's entirely possible it's made it's presence known and it might be making your local news as well. Every once in awhile we have that happen around here. It's just a thought.

    I do hope you find your snake. Thankfully I have never lost a snake in a car but I have had rats get loose. What I don't understand is why you didn't take your snake in first? If it was hot why leave it in the car? I am not trying to be mean but I truely don't understand. It was not that long ago some one had his snake stolen out from the front seat of his car(it was in a bag and he was taking it to the vet). He was broken hearted when they finnaly found the snake. It had been killed in a horrible way.

    Good luck

    I never have, but I also have extra housing of all sorts on hand just in case.
