Lost Pet Snake Found in Neighbor's Basement: A Mother's Nightmare
Originally Published 2 years ago — by Berkshire Eagle
A woman in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, sought help on Facebook after finding a bright orange snake loose in her basement. With no luck from authorities, two reptile owners volunteered to help. They identified the snake as a corn snake, a popular pet, and assured the homeowner that it was harmless. After more than a week of searching, the owner of the snake, named TIE Fighter, learned about the situation and joined the rescue effort. The snake had escaped three months ago when the owner's kitten knocked over its tank.
