    Its decided you guys. I am calling animal control tomorrow, I am going to do what has to be done.

    I hadn't even considered the existence of septicemia, and the reality is this snake needs help fast!. IF my friend is really my friend then she will realize I did the right thing. I am doing it for the snake and no one else.

    Re: Brace Yourself...

    im not sure if anyone has said this yet but the big thing that comes to mind to me is you have mentioned your friend has snakes in this house as well. Why didnt your friend step in and say hey - take care of your snake! or even step up and do it herself?

    To me that bothers me as much as what he did. she allowed this to happen and didnt do anything about it.

    Believe me I have asked myself that too...I suppose she has too much pride. That it's his responsibility and trying to teach him a lesson but she didn't. The 2 months the snake was with "pet keeper" she was really neglected. The person even admitted to it. But the thing is this started out as one scale.... how could it get this bad. You have to ask yourself that. Its inexcusable.

    Also if you got your snake back and the tank was filthy why would you just let her sit it in it for a month? Also the fact she hadn't been eating should have been a for sure sign to check husbandry. But they arent as strict on husbandry as you can tell.

    Poor lil guy


    If your friend cared about the snake, she would have done something. Whether it was go in there herself and take care of it, or report her ex. Do what's best and make the call. Do other people know about the condition of the snake? If so, I wouldn't tell them it was you though because like someone else mentioned, the guy may seek revenge and sometimes people can be very ugly about it.

    Not a cool situation. There are many thing I want to post about this but I do not want to get banned.
    If he is willing to give up the snake, pm me. I can be where ever they are on a couple mins.
    Though, I might just take all the pets in the house just to make sure they are all taken care of right.

    Unfortunately I think the only thing I can do it report it. I can't wait around any longer to decide to do the right thing.
