When we lived in North Bend, I was used to seeing body parts of birds, mice, shrews, and voles laying on the kitchen floor or doorstep. Now, in Roseville, Chelan has become pretty adept and catching lizards. I think the success rate of me saving them in time is about 50%. A few weeks ago, I joked with my friends in Bible Study that I would need therapy if Chelan (our cat) ever brought in a snake.
Well, my nightmare came true…
David, my hero, played Jeff Corwin and took the snake outside with a pair of my salad tongs…
The poor little guy did have a few puncture wounds, but I am sure he will be OK. I am pleased to say that I think I handled myself better than I thought I would have. I only shattered one of David’s eardrums…:)
Oh my gosh! That snake was huge. Did you take the picture? I can just imagine you- get it out but wait I need a picture first! 🙂
