Please help, I lost my snake in my car :(

[Laurenmassx]

I already drove my car this morning :/ I had to take it to work at 6 in the morning. I've ripped through the car and checked everywhere. I checked everywhere in the hood before I drove it as well I couldn't see her anywhere. I'm getting the dash taken out tomorrow if I can't find her tonight.

I hope you find her! Take a picture of her when you do. She must be beautiful. Good luck.

I own a 2012 Mazda 3 sedan. I searched everywhere with a flashlight as well. I have a friend who knows someone that works at a car shop and offered to do it for free for me.

Like I said too nature has a way to live even in 3 days or a week from now he could still be fine. They can hide and slow their body process down and live for awhile. Keep a good head. We are all hoping for the best here at the farm for ya.

It's still in the car then. That model has a very sealed interior. It didn't escape the car i can almost guarantee.

At this point I am thinking passenger side behind the dashboard probably 6 to 10 inches up. He wouldn't be exploring right now. He's afraid and wants security. He's nestled somewhere he feels safe.

Or under and up inside in the seat. Your heater vents potentially but I see that area being too unnerving for her. Anywhere that you wouldn't think is where she is. Probably no more than 1 ft from where the bag was. Maybe 2.

She's been gone since Sunday at 4 but that's what I was thinking. If she found a warm spot she's going to stay put because she's probably scared :/ I jus put 2 warm water bottles on each side of my car & on the passenger side where she escaped from I heated up an adult mouse and left it next to a hide with a towel inside. Hopefully she comes out it's 45 degrees here now though.

Should I turn the heat on at all? & if this doesn't work should I at least try the hamster cage I know the smell would probably attract her and it's live. I would just watch from outside the car & just snatch her up if I saw her.

Hairdryer! Just thought about it. Or a propane torch. Run an extension cord out close the door and sit inside and heat the air up. That way the car running doesn't scare her. Just trying to come up with anything to help. I think the live hamster is a good choice also. Keep it secured but even leave it out overnight may find in the morning your girl will be caring the cage looking for a way in. Keep us updated we are cheering for you.

get some hand warmer..heat packs wrap up in a towel maybe?.... i'm not sure how hot they get, but walmart has them and maybe put it in the hide,,,if its cold in the car and she is still in it...I bet she will go to the heat packs overnight surely....hope you find her safe
