    Surprise Baby Snake

    So I was sitting at my desk reading the forums and my cat comes up to me with something in her mouth. Not uncommon so I reach down to see what it is and if she wants to play fetch and this is what she gives me.



    And next to a quarter to give it perspective:



    Any guesses to what kind it is? I am searching now, I have an idea but I want to make sure. I suppose I will let it go outside but I am very curious as to where it came in from. I think it must be hiding under my basement.

    Not going to keep him. He sneaks out of every cage I have I put him in the "cave" under my basement. Doesnt get too cold there and lots of little things to eat. There is a way out too :-p
