snake custody battle?
my fiance and might be splitting. we've talked about it & he said if we do, he's taking my snakes.
here's the thing, yes he bought turbine. for my christmas present!
i maintain the snakes, feed them, do all the cleaning. buy everything. yes he bought the tank. but that was for the turtles we used to have. and i bought the second one.
im just wondering if anyone has gone through this? how do i keep them? do i really have to go to court for this..

Re: snake custody battle?
I'm no lawyer but since your fiance paid for the snakes they might just let him have it.
Does your husband actually like the snakes? I thought he was afraid of them... aren't they more like pets to you and not him? For what reason does he want them?

he wants them to get back at me if we do break it off. which probably will happen.
but even though he bought her, he bought her for me. doesnt that count?

Re: snake custody battle?
I highly doubt a lawyer would take a case like this, and if by any miracle he/she did. could you afford the retainer fees???

Re: snake custody battle?
Just sort it out between yourselves. Maybe you will have to compromise and have one snake each and it just means that one of you will have to buy a new enclosure.

What he said. And what CK said. No lawyer is going to waste their time with this, because based on your previous posts, it sounds like you don't have the money to spend on one.
Worst case scenario, he takes all of your snakes, pawns them off, and you'll never see them again. You're young, you'll get over it, you'll find another boyfriend and get new snakes. Next time, get a job, buy your own snakes, and get everything in writing. Life lessons learned, and you'll (hopefully) be all the more wiser.

Re: snake custody battle?
^^ This, what Donnie said. But ^this too.
By your wording I'm guessing you are the one that brought up the idea of breaking up. In which case he's hurt(and obviously immature), and wants to cause you pain. Am I in the ball park? If you guys ended up engaged there is clearly some love there(or very poor descision making). Talk to him, let him know how important they are to you. He might come around.

Re: snake custody battle?
First of all, I'm really sorry to hear this. In reality, I don't think a lawyer will spend his/her time with a situation like this. Hope everything works out for you guys.

A lawyer will spend as much time doing whatever you are willing to pay for. The only people who love splits and divorces are lawyers.

If both sides want to go to court.....the lawyers will be there as long as you keep paying.
