Aaaah! Flood!

So...Auryn decided to leave me poop + urate + pee today. On the bottom of his tub, of course He decided that doing it on -top- of the KRAFT paper was too much effort.

And...oh my GOD did it stink. I almost threw up. Before, he'd pooped twice and I've had a urate/pee once--but they were seperate events, and on the paper--and didn't smell too bad. This one, though... *shudder*

Anyway--so I put him in a holding tub (with some tepid water) for a few minutes (I emptied the water, dried him and the tub off, and left him in the tub over the flexwatt while I did the rest of the cleaning). I emptied the poo and paper into a trash bag (this is where I almost gagged...), and then set the tub in my shower, turned the water on HOT, dumped some bleach in with it, his bowl and hides, and let the water run.

I did this for maybe 5 minutes or so--while I was dealing with Auryn: drying him off, taking a few pictures, then putting him in the tub over the flexwatt. I went back into the bathroom to scrub the tub out and dry it--and when I walked in there was a FLOOD in my bathroom. (it's a small shower-only setup--so not much of a lip on the shower)

The tub was covering the drain...and...yeah. It was a mess. I sopped it up with all of my towels and finally scrubbed and dried his enclosure...

Cleaning out his tub was an event today O.O It's a good thing I love that little bugger

True--some nice pictures. And, now that I've taken a shower myself, I don't smell like bleach anymore!

I guess that floor could have used a mopping, anyways

Oh but Auryn looks so pleased with himself LOL. Probably feels quite good having emptied out all his waste products too. Happy, clean snake...slightly frazzled owner....it's all good!
