Sad News

I am sad to report that Salazar Slitherin has passed away. He was in the midst of shedding, and it was taking longer than normal, but we weren't worried yet. This morning he was rubbing his belly on the rocks trying to get the skin off, and this evening he was dead. Poor guy. I feel just awful for him, stuck in that cage all day. Maybe he lost his will to live after he left Scio Middle School.

Thanks. I keep crying! It's SO lame, but he was a good snake and my students loved him. If I feel this bad about Salazar- what the heck will I feel like when Bonzo goes!? I am eating a lot of ice cream to help me cope.
