oh Lori
I know what you mean
not to give you false hope or anything, but I cannot imagine Squiggles not turning up again
even if she doesn't, you still deserve another snake, particularly since you're just having a very painful lesson that's turning you into a more careful snake owner
most of us have lost snakes, and I've committed much graver sins

in any case, Blueberry seems happy in her new environs, generally not hiding, but observing her surroundings curously, unfazed by cats hanging out on or around her tank
