...in tears...my snake is gone...

[lilyskip]

Huxley turned up missing this morning. His tank (a sliding top) was totally shut when I put him in last night before going to sleep. It was totally shut when I woke up this morning, minus a snake. I looked everywhere in my room, under dressers, in hampers, open suitcases, behind refrigerators, etc. I haven't found him. Most evidence points to him being stolen, but as that means I'll probably never see him again, I prefer to hold out hope that he's here somewhere.

If anybody has any advice on luring back missing snakes, it would be greatly appreciated. Right now, I just have his tank open on the floor, with all the heating stuff on. It's cold up here, so I'm hoping he'll be attracted to the tank and climb in. Help, please. Huxley was such a kind, gentle snake...I really really want him back.
