We had a friend over for a BBQ as mentioned before...
We ate outdoors and noticed the two cats taking an interest in something just off the edge of the deck. We had some bird netting there so I got a broom and carefully lifted it away from the interested felines to a clear patch of grass... oh, and our friend just happened to be a herpotologist and was able to assist...
Katie's boyfriend captured the escape of the snake on his camera. Note Swiss Chris' F15 in the background... so this is the calibre of our guardians of CMPs... no wonder we have so many left here!
