SNAKES!!!

Well, I guess 'snake' in the singular form, to be more precise. But Scar found one down by the brush pile at the end of the yard...and it got away. So he spent 5 minutes investigating the pile trying to find it again. No luck. And that turned into having to investigate every single stick in the yard to see if any of them moved. Boy is such a goof.

He's just keeping you safe. We've only seen three so far this year.

This is the first I have seen in my yard for several years.

Well, better that he attacks the sticks rather than a snake!

@JolietJake I guess he had a bigger chance of getting hurt from splinters from the sticks!

I hate snakes I will get the other way right away whenever I see one. My mom use to run them over with the lawnmower but not by choice though.

@JolietJake Yuck. I got to see a snake eat a I believe it was a mouse while could have been a rat not sure it was pretty cool and freaky all at the same time.

They've never bothered me, I used to go out hunting them

That snake was his toy if only for a moment. Too bad they don't make toy snakes that move like the real ones, he'd have a blast with it.

Many snakes are harmless @JolietJake I'm glad the lil garter got away. I wonder what scar would do if you could find him a toy snake that slithered.

Well it certainly kept him busy. I am not sure what Princess investigates. She has never brought me a snake.

They don't bother me any...I was kind of upset he ran it off before I got a good enough look to see what kind it was. At a glance I would say it was likely a garter snake

Scar was outsmarted this time. Perhaps he needs some glasses. :P

It was funny watching him check every single stick out on the way back to the front porch.

He's a goof who bores easily and likes all to know that that yard is His domain.

We have only had one so far this year. But it has stayed too cold for them to be out yet

I hope it wasn't a dangerous snake and glad he didn't find more.

We had a snake in our yard, years ago. My dog Puffer shook that poor thing like a rope, until he finally broke it in two pieces:(

It was a fun adventure for him and he kept you safe from the big bad sticks that were threatening you. Give the boy a treat.
