Slinky is dead

At one stage or the other, we all deal with a death. It is never nice losing a pet and thus, you can share your loss with the rest of us and share your memories so that they will be remembered.

If your not sure, don't do it. It's probably not a good idea anyway.

Sometimes snakes die from the same things we do. Heart failure, cancer etc and only a small number of these diseases are visual. Sorry to hear that. At least you know he had a good life.

Thank you for your messages. I know I should clear out his cage but haven't done so yet. He was my first corn but for now I'm not ready to "replace" him. I'll get to cleaning and putting his tank away eventually but not now. He had quite a special personality and was gentle from day one. RIP Slinky. I miss him already soooo much.
