My little Snakey passed away this morning.. and I'm not sure why.
I just had him out yesterday. He was happy and cuddly like always, and he enjoyed the bath I gave him. When I returned him to his tank, it was the right temperature and he was perfectly fine.. But when I came home from work this morning, I found him in an awkward position- body as it normally is, head twisted and throat facing up. It almost looked like he broke his own neck or something.
Concerned, I picked him up and his posterior half was limp while his head and neck remained in the same general position. I straightened him out and he was obviously dead.. But WHY? I just can't figure it out.
He was a great little friend, went with me everywhere. He was so cool and laid back. He would let anyone touch him if they wanted.
Maybe I'm a little too emotional about this, but he was MY snake, MY little friend, and now he's gone. I feel like a little piece of me is missing.
"The Voyager" Lyrics
-
I have it all-
A song for everything
And still nothing,
Writing lyrics only I
Can understand.
Left dry and thirsty
For something more,
Someplace more....

Aw...my sympathies. Don't know what happened, but sorry to hear. What a neat pet.
I am always sad when i hear someone loses a pet. I hope that snakey is in pet heaven right now :)
take care
Losing a pet, whether it's a snake, dog, cat, ferret, bird, whatever...it's heart breaking and so sad. You have my sympathies Raivyn. Whatever was wrong, he's no longer in any pain.
