My snake died. ._.
I am sad.
It was young, too. Only something like 6 years old.
It's been really sick recently, and I guess I kind of saw this coming, but she seemed to be getting better, so it was really a surprise.

Oh she didn't make it? I'm sorry. I know how you feel though, my garter snake, Slippy died aged 11. I'd had him since I was ten.
Again, my sympathies

Sorry to hear it, Maggot. Just becaus eyour snake wasn't warm and fuzzy doesn't mean she wasn't loved.

Royal Pythons usually live for 20 years.
She was in need of a vet appointment for like 2 months, but our vet was on vacation.
I feel like she died because she didn't get medical attention fast enough, and it's our fault for not consulting a different vet.

No way, man. Animals are delicate - a lot of the time, once something starts going wrong, there's not a lot you can do. (Believe me, I must have spent hundreds on the two dogs, cat and hamster I've had die on me, AFTER seeing a vet, being told there's nothing to be done, and being charged a shitload for the bad news. I'm not saying you should leave it, but like I said the little ones are delicate in that you can't operate etc., and do the stuff you can with a person.) Plus, if you wanted to see a vet you trusted, no one can reproach you for wanting to put your critter in the hands of someone you knew would do a good job.

That sucks man. I don't know what I would do if my cat died, I've had him since I was 4. My deepest sympathies.

My zebra finch that I've had for seven years died a week ago as well. It was a horrible accident though.

That's a shame, Maggot.
I hope you feel better soon.

I`m very sorry to hear that, Maggot. You have my sympathies. A beloved pet is truly a big loss, they are almost like a good friend to you.

We went away on holiday and the person looking after it dropped the cage and it smashed it’s head but I know the bitch was lying. I mean the body was lying five feet away from the cage and had the tray over it, that’s just not possible.

Lol, from what I gather, you have every right to use such language.
My guinea pig actually went at a rather convenient time. I know it sounds horrible, but we were about to go on vacation in 2 weeks, so it ended up that we didn't have to pay for 3 weeks of petsitting. :\
