    That was the thing it was a gas stove and I checked it the day before because I found some shed under my kitchen sink. I stuck my hand everywere it could fit in stove and used a flash light and everything. I checked it yesterday before I even turned it on and didnt find him.

    Thanks for the help you guys have provided and everything. It wont stop me though from keeping snakes or reptiles in general. It was a very hard lesson learned though, and I hope nobody else has to go through what I have gone through.

He was the first animal I have ever had to put down. I will get some pics of what he looked like. I will be picking him up in an hour cause I didnt want to sit around waiting and keeping him on my mind. He will get a proper burial instead of being trashed or whatever vet offices do to them. what a day. :(

    You also have an option of having him cremated and his ashes put in a wooden bos it will cost around $100 though.

    I am so sorry for your loss. Unfortunatly part of having animals is having to say good bye sometimes. It is always more traumatic when it is a horrible accident like what you have experienced. My thoughts and prayers are with you. May the pain pass quickly and happier days follow soon. poor fellow was probably looking for a warm hiding spot. You did the right thing and I commend you for your efforts!

    I'm so sorry to read about TC but I think you did right by him. You got him to a vet as fast as possible, gave him a chance but in the end made the most humane and giving decision to end his suffering. Thank you for sharing this information, you may well have helped to save another snake from this sad fate.

    If you'd like to share some pictures of him during happier times, I know we'd all love to see them.
