Snake in the Toilet


Today we came home from work to discover our resident carpet python, Sophie, had somehow found her way into the house and had made her way to the guest bathroom. (Luckily we have no guests at the moment!)

Sophie was pretty calm. I managed to get her unwound from around the toilet, slid her into an empty box, and carried her outside. She was pretty calm about the whole thing. When I put the box down she just calmly and slowly made for the nearest bush!

I really like having the snakes and other wildlife around the house - even though some people don't like snakes we don't mind and it certainly keeps the mice and the possums away!

OK that would be a little shocking first thing in the morning and I actually don't mind snakes. Glad Sophie was cool about the relocation :)

Maybe Sophie wants to do more for you and was going to clean the bathroom
