Ok, just got off the phone with the vet and test results are back and things aren't good, I'm afraid...one minute.....

It turns out that Kinky is suffering with spinal osteopathy and looking at the X-ray results, it's too far advanced to treat in order to give her any sort of life. So, after much soul searching, crying, deliberation, more crying, etc we feel that it's in her best interests to have her euthanised.

It breaks our heart to tell you guys this but because of the wonderful support you've all shown Kinky over the last couple of weeks, we feel this is what she would've wanted.

The vet was wonderful in explaining that we could do further tests, blood culture, etc and be given a long, LONG course of antibiotics but, in her professional opinion, even after all this Kinky would never have the sort of life that we would want for her.

She was only in our lives for a wee while but she brought so much love, it really does break our heart to do this but because of the condition of her and the infection being so advanced, poor previous husbandry, we feel that this would be what she would want.

So, with a heavy heart, we are letting everyone know that we will be going to say goodbye tomorrow and she'll be coming home to her final resting place underneath the tree at the bottom of our garden, alongside Boo, our Leusistic Texas Ratsnake, who passed away about 6 months ago.

Thanks again for ALL your support, Kinky loves you all.

Goodbye Kinky, we'll miss you.

Chris.

Yeah, ditto Charver. Gonna be lost without her. But had to think about what was gonna be best for her. Because of the infection, our other snakes were gonna be at risk too so.....think it's best for her, unfortunately.
