Pardon my french.
About five minutes ago I walk into the entryway of my house to find the biggest Texas Blind Snake I have ever seen(about half the diameter of a #2 pencil and just as long), the only problem: My cats found him first.:angry01:
Now I love my cats dearly, but its times like these that make me wonder why.
Three of the four of them had him cornered. He slithered under a dresser as I pushed the cats out of the way. After I moved the dresser I had to look at him for a few moments, it was big enough that I thought it could have been some other kind of snake. It wasn't until I tried picking the little guy up that I realized the huge gash in his side. He was already starting to slow down and go kinda limp by the time I got him outside.
If I had just walked in earlier, maybe things could have been different.:headbang: Blind snakes are about the only reptile we find on our property, and seeing one so big really got me excited. I was on ther verge of tears by the time I let him go.
I love my cats, but that doesn't necessarily mean I have to like them.
