    The lengths that you're going to for Mowgli are admirable. She should be able to adjust just fine to life without her eyes on her own -- she has her other senses to lean on. I would keep her enclosure on the simple, more sterile side for a while post-surgery to ease her recovery.
    I agree, and I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels the same way. They become family. Sure they don't show love like a cat or dog, but having a snake trust you is the equivalent to love from a reptile in my opinion.

    And yes, I've been constantly cleaning her cage even now. Til her surgery, I have to do everything to keep an infection from occuring (if one does), but thank you for the advice!
    I'm also going to be switching her to a new enclosure a bit tinier, and getting her new stuff that I've been wanting to set up (then keep it how its set up - not moving anything to a new spot). So again after her surgery she'll already have memory of placement of things and it'll be easier for her to move around and get to her water dish, hide, etc
