It’s what they do & they are the Best! Your beautiful boy is every bit as loved & valued as anyone there.
I checked in to see &...still no Mr Alice :-( But these things take time. I know every day makes you more afraid & in a way, weaker (which is why I suggested the prayer angels) I feared that more than anything & wanted “back up”.
I’m still praying, too, Salamander. Hang in there.
ps I think the thermal camera idea is a good one, too. And maybe a pest control could help you find him?
Hmmm Does your local tv station do any animal stories? Twitter has an amber alert hashtag for pets. In fact, if you google “amber alert for pets”, there’s quite a few hits (including that).
pps Have Y’All been in the attic yet? Maybe there’s something important there & Alice is the only way you’ll go.
A thermal camera won’t work because ‘ectothermic’ snakes assume the exact same temperature as whatever their surroundings are, unlike mammals which self regulate their temps.
Pest control couldn’t get into the walls or under the floors any better than I can.
He’s got to find his way out on his own.
I’m resigned to that, now.
God bless you for keeping us in your prayers.
I did get a couple of personal emails from some people on that website who said “I HATE snakes but will pray anyway”.
I’m not sure how to answer them.
I kinda suspect Alice wasn’t very “popular” on that prayer list.
