Need some perspective (gore)

I just read this thread and humans never cease to amaze me, an animal like that with its spine showing and it took her HOW long to bring it to a vet? (if she even did) it should of been humanely put down, no questions about it. Also, is there any proof this animal actually came from a "pet store"? For all we know it was her snake to begin with, she was the moron who left it in with a rat and maybe thats why she refused to have it put down? maybe she sees it as "fer fault?" No clue.. but I wish either the snake the best in a super amazingly speedy recovery or... a quick death. (if we can consider anything past even an hour of being like that quick..)

Heart breaking..

Very insightful! We'll never know..but it's quite possible. Hopefully, even if she's not posting, she's reading and know we wish her only the best for the sake of the animal.

Thanks Shadi, I'd love to hear how everything is going.

Any news on this? I hope the snake has been put out of it's misery....

[shadi11]

Snake is still alive. Not showing signs of infection and being treated still under vet advise. I am waiting on possibly updated pics..

[grunt_11b]

Did you ever get any updated pics?? I hope the snake makes it.. But those wounds were pretty bad.. I'd love to know if it's still doing ok..

Are you sure that was a rat bite? The cut looks almost like a slice and the snake would have fought back and at least scared off the rat before it got in THAT DEEP. I mean I honestly don't know and wasn't there but I've seen rat attacks before and never seen it attack the same area like that and make an almost perfect curve, looks almost like it was a slice, again can't say for sure.

I just saw this thread today and haven't read every post. I do see that she has posted this stuff on at least a few forums. Am I cynical to wonder if this is a scam to get people to sent monetary donations? Has anyone determined this situation to be genuine?

It seems rather unlikely - for all of her acting up and being frustrating on the forums, she never once asked for a penny. At least one member offered to pay for the euthanasia and the besnaked party showed no interest in this arrangement as a potential scam or otherwise.
