Its a beautiful day here today. I decided I'd strap up the kitties (one at a time) and take them for a walk.
I've got tinker in my hand, and I open the front door. There, stretched all the way across the door jam, is a 5 foot King snake.
Now, I know enough about snakes to identify it, so I know it's not poisonous, it's a constrictor. But come on, it's a SNAKE!!!!
Thankfully Tinker didn't see it, I lob her into the living room so i know she's far away, and use my foot to shoe the snake out. yes, it had started coming IN to the house to play cards or something. I still can't believe i dind't get bit. I didn't kick it, I put my foot to it's head, and kind of pushed it out. it left, and i had to run through the house to find my camera. by the time i did it was only about 3 feet out, so i got some pictures of it, i'll upload them later. but it startled me BAD. I am very thankful mom wasn't here.
of course I let it go on it's way. it wrastles rodents and stuff, so it's a good thing to leave them alone.
Exciting day though
