While I have snakes and children I take great care to make sure my animals are safe from the kid and visa versa. If I came in and saw that kind of situation I would be beyond POed (especially that someone else obviously didn't take the same responsibility). The average person doesn't have a clue about reptiles and that would be an unimaginable fear to walk in to such a situation (that and finding one in the shower). Someone's pet got loose (no matter if just plain old accident or irresponsibility) and now more reasons to spread pet law propaganda. All around sucks.

I've been tagged defensively and it looked more like scratches than bites.
