Age: 26
Occupation:Assistant Animal Control Officer for the Nevada,MO Animal Shelter.
What snakes do you own?: 2 month old Columbian Red Tailed Boa.
Why do you keep snakes?: I always like to own the weird type of animals. Ive had tons of lizards, snakes, snails, fish, rodents, dogs, cats... gah you name it ive owned it (except the really rare stuff). I love animals and like to be surrounded by them at all times!
What other animals do you have?: 2 Russian Dwarf Hamsters (Lilly and Ghost), A border collie/austrailian cattle dog (Zoe), and two cats; my fat orange Jones, and my black/white Sammy kitty.
What other hobbies do you enjoy?: I love writing and singing to myself, I love to role play with friends, I like to have good clean fun (alcohol is okay, but not a must), like to hang out with my children, I love to play pretend with my boys (jedi-demon-monster-transformers is the
!)
I also love to ride horses and photograph animals doing funny things.
Anything else to add?: I love my job. A lot. I love being around animals in general and love snakes due to the interesting nature they present to the world. My mom always hated me bringing home garden snakes that I would catch, but I always loved the challenge they presented.
When I was 17 I caught a cotton mouth in the small park on the edge of town. I kept her successfully for two years until my mother found out she was poisonous. I ended up donating her to the Conservation Department (since she had been in my possesion for so long), for educational purposes. I miss Gorgita =(
I also love horses. They are beautiful creatures and ive loved them since I saw the movie Black Beauty.
I also love to read, any kind of story with dragons, magic and wizards, even vampires and werewolves, im drawn to.
