Wow.
You had better get her back. I am so sorry for your sh*t "friends". I can't believe how you've held your composure...
I am sort of hiding my snakes right now, in my apartment. In Ontario there is a law against refusing tenants because they have pets, or kicking them out because they have pets (thank jeebus that it is seen as discrimination); but I am still worried, so I can totally understand why you allowed someone else to care for your girl - or so you thought.
All I can say is good luck with your snake!!
I really don't have anything productive to suggest for those other people, because I know the route I would take would not be the best.![]()
