The unimaginable... ALL OUR ANIMALS LIVED through the fire!!!

[Bruce Whitehead]

I wish I had a pic.

Coll and June spare room is piled high with tubs.

They finally let us in, and the ONLY room not decimated with fire was the snake room and the rat room. Just the placement of how the fire went through.

There is no back on our apartment, the door was literally burned off the snake room. But the snakes are fine.

The cop stayed with me and held the flashlight while I went systematically through the racks filling up tubs.

Finally they seemed to get that I had snakes... they told me, we thought you meant one or two... they were very respectable and helpful.

Same with the rat room. As I went through and filled up 3 tubs with mice, rats, and ASFs.

I need to shoot a few mails out.

But if you know of anyone in the area that can foster a snake, or has an incubator... I am in Montreal, Quebec and I have only one clutch to get into an incubator.

Ok... *breathe*... I will be back!

I am truly blessed today.

I need to be brief and try to mobilize. I need to find foster homes for 45 snakes and a lot of rodents.

Wow! I am stunned and GLAD to hear this.

What an emotional roller coaster for you. Wish I was closer so I could temporarily house some of the critters for you.

OMG!!!! That is AWESOME!!!!!!!

[Spaniard]

Holy Bejesus! Thats amazing Bruce, I'm so happy and relieved!

[rabernet]

Oh my GOD! That's amazing, simply amazing news! I am so happy for you Bruce!!! I'd still watch all of them, to make sure that there was no damage to them from smoke inhalation. Your animals had an angel (or many) watching over them, there's no doubt in my mind!

[FatBoy]

GREAT NEWS Bruce. That will make it easier to get back on your feet, knowing that your animals are ok. God Bless!!

That's really amazing some one was really looking out for you.45 snakes is going to be hard to get fosters for maybe with students going home a place will open up so it'll only be a few weeks. Do you have any close friends who can lend you a basement corner for a wee bit? Maybe getting tubs and stacking them would help with the amount of space. I'm so glad that your babies are ok I hope in the end like for us you make out better then you were before the fire. Did you have insurance?
