Yes cathy-snakes ARE the way forward,therapy wise.My 15yr old is Autistic and can happily chat away about 'his'snakes and is calm and confidentwhen holding them! |

could be a whole new form of relaxation therapy??
It is the same at my house. I have 4 kids and one husband (known by a few as "Mr Antibac hand gel and gloves" after his first encounter with baby snake poo) and she has won each and every one of them over.
My youngest (who is 15, years not months!) was really upset one day but 15 minutes with Cathy and he was much more happy. Snakes are gorgeous beings. I find spending time with my girl very relaxing too - you are definitely on to something! |

Sadly we have a genuine 'worm phobic'amongst us,but even she loves the snakes and will very bravely touch them and take an active role in snake care.
Lovely pics. of a lovely girl

She's lovely. I would finish the smalls first, or maybe buy a couple of fluffs? So she could have a small and a fluff instead, two smalls is quite a big meal and a big jump from just one |

ok then thankyou i still have about 8 smalls left shall i feed her tghose first?
