Rat Snake

Elpahe obsoleta

Description:

My first pet snake was a baby silver blue snake called Ripley. I adored him more than anything else in my life before or since. I used to do the washing up, read, write etc and he would always sit around my neck with his head level with mine moving with my head wherever I went like a shadow! Was so cute and very friendly. Even friends who visited who were petrified of snakes would hold him he loved humans. When he died I got a tattoo to remember him always. RIP little Rippers.

It's alway good to hear how an animal can touch our lives. I've moved this to Pets for you & changed the order so the photo of Ripley appears in the thumbnails until you get an opportunity to delete the other one which as ForestDragon has said, unfortunately is not acceptable for PN purposes.

Hi Gemma, that is a beautiful piece of body art you have. However, I must ask you to remove that photo and just leave the one of the real snake. Sorry.
