Hi,

Help! First time EVER our 3.5 foot Ball has escaped. We also have a new kitten which we are keeping in what we believe to be a snake free room! Please answer two questions for me so that I can breathe again...

1) Will a snake this size go after a kitten (9 weeks old)?

2) Where could he possible go? Can they climb stairs? We've looked in all of the dark, warm spots we can think of (we don't have ductwork). I've looked in all of the closets, heaters, under the fridge and stove and down in the basement. Any other ideas?

Have you ever found a Ball alive after they escaped? We love him very much and I am crushed right now (my son left his lid cracked a bit too much I guess). I am also worried sick about the kitten.

Thanks for ANYTHING you can say...

Karen
