Just be careful if you let your Kitty out.
As we say here if you see a dead snake where is the rest of it's family?
Could be more around.
I'm listening a few more nights. And I know the answer to the snake question - somewhere between the back door and the pond!! It's already that shovel carrying time of year here. (In case it gets between me and my back door...)

This has been hard, hearing the bobcat attacking small animals in the night and my sweet kitty being bored to death inside and not understanding the "new rules".
