Ugh so like, what do you do for someone that has a snake, but has no interest in providing its basic care of life needs?
They have a heat lamp, but they never turn it on (there power is usually cut off anyways)
No humidity, thermometer, tstat, uth, water, shedding assisters, hideaways, and they dont feel like feeding it that often.
Basically some kid came over and said, hey look at my new snake, well, i gota go, and left town, seriously.
Idk, he says hes coming back, and gets mad pissed when he hears that im helping the snake out, or doing anything with the snake because its "his" hes just on tour..
Iduno the snake is in a smokers house thats never ventilated, and its in the middle of a bright room, which is basically a trap house (lots of traffic, and everyone wants to hold the snake)
What can i do, should i just find someone to rehome it to, and when the kid gets back just say tough cookies?
Its a beautiful 5.5 nearly 6ft female, and shes a sweety, gave me a kiss on the lips the first time we met...
I already bought them a humidity guage and som ghetto hideaways, but its not enough, and honestly, i have a baby bp, and my money is dedicated, ya know.
The guys that had the snake droped off, there real cool, but all terrified of it, its the kid that dosnt even live there...
If we rehomes the snake, could he press charges
(Were not worried about him getting friskey, because im 230, and the guys that got thw snake dumped on them are all over 250, all muscle, so thats no issue, its more a question of legality, and the welfare of a beautiful animal.
Oh and did i mention this snake has come from an abusive home. The previous owner (before the dumb kid) got bit, and to get the snake off, put a freaking cig out on her head, and even after a few sheds, she still has a brutal scar, poor thang, its breaking all our hearts, and im sure we can find a home for her
Gosh, im almost in tears, if i had the space and money id take her...
