I have a very disturbing entry today! Poor My Yollie, had the biggest fright of her life today! I didn't know what had happened to her, all I heard was this horrible loud scream. I have never heard anything like it before. I was very worried, I didn't even know what it was, or if the sound was even human. It turns out there is a Brown Snake in the front yard of My Yollie's house.

My Yollie nearly stepped on it!!!! The terrible scream I heard was My Yollie, when she jumped out of it's way. This is what she told us when she came down to check on us all and lock us up safe and sound......
My Yollie was out the front of her house doing some gardening after helping the little one with her home work after school. My Yollie said she heard some rustling under the big pine trees on the council strip, but did not think much of it. When she had finished putting in the new plants, she went over to get the hose. Doing so she let out the blood curdling scream I heard. She was reaching over to turn on the tap, she looked down and between her feet lay a brown snake. She startled it probably as much as it startled her. Like a flash it whipped up and thrashed around her unprotected legs. My Yollie jumped out of it's way as quickly as possible to avoid being bitten. Next she ran inside to call the council, which were of no use at all and did not know how to help her or what they could do. Next she called the snake catchers, they were not really any better. They told her there wasn't anyone available to come out to remove it today. All they could offer was to set up a bate trap which will cost her $160, but there was nothing they could do today!! She really does not know what to do. The last place she followed it to was under the cement driveway. My Stewart (My Yollie's life-bond-mate)looked on the internet to see if there was any repellent to keep it away from the house and the castle. He sprayed citronella around, not that the info available was very optimistic. Hopefully this works though, for all our sakes; Our humans, Holly, Blossom, Chester, Ariel, Belle, Tink, Pox, Will, Barney, the fish in our pond, Daddy, Mummy, Patches and me! Till next time. Think of us poor guys - Hopefully we have good news to report.
Sweetie xoxo
