Yes poor guy, winter would've been much worse than summer with no heating pads. What a lucky snake. I thought he was a goner for sure when I found his tracks under a futon I keep stored in the closet and then a small hole nearby in the corner of the carpet, figured once he was under there it was all over. I was on my hands and knees patting every inch of the carpet for weeks, trying to find him. I even looked into getting a woman with a bloodhound to come and try and find him, but it would have cost a few hundred dollars that I didn't have. He's lucky my cat is old and now just finds it interesting to watch the reptiles and doesn't make any effort to smack them around or eat them.
The pinky has stayed down, so I think I will offer him another tomorrow evening, and then just gradually increase the size like everyone suggested. Thanks for the help everyone!
