Just had a call from my vet, the one who nursed my beloved chameleon through her last couple of weeks, who felt sorry for me that I always lumber myself with rescues and end up being devastated...
He had a baby ball python brought in by someone who realised it's current keeper wasn't able to give it the care it needed.
So he nursed her back to health over the last month, managed to convince her to eat defrosted food instead of live, and called me to ask if I want her! He breeds snakes, but I think he's focussing on Kingsnakes at the moment. He's going to give me everything I need for her and I'm collecting her tomorrow!
I'm so excited! And my girls are thrilled, my youngest (6) adores pythons and nearly exploded when I told her we are collecting a baby one tomorrow... I say baby, but she's about 1 1/2 ft long.
And because I'm trying out this whole being responsible thing, I even told my husband about it (pretended I was discussing it with him, but you know how that goes) and he's just as excited as me!
Wonder how many more pets I can squeeze into the house before I can start just adding pets without him noticing...
Expect a million pictures tomorrow...
