    Goodbye Cornelius :(

    I checked on all the critters last night before bed and I discovered my little corn snake was dead it was very unexpected, he wasn't sick to my knowledge and had eaten fine 4 days before and was seemingly healthy the day before. Maybe he had some underlying problem, I don't know, I'm just at a loss. This is my first snake death and I'm not taking it too well. I always feel like its my fault when an animal passes away goodbye Cornelius

    I'm so sorry to hear about this!! Sometimes they just pass without giving us any clues as to what was wrong. I doubt it was your fault!

    I'm sorry for your loss. Hang in there, it will be okay!

    That is sad news for sure I am very sorry. I wish there were something to say or do but in reality there is very little that can be said to ease your grief. Sorry.

    That is sad, losing a pet always is. I too, doubt it was your fault. I love his name! Hang in there, I am sorry.

    Unexpected pet deaths are so hard, I'm very sorry for your loss I absolutely hate that feeling of not knowing, I can't imagine it being related to your care. I know that doesn't make it any easier, tie a knot in the rope and hang in there!
