Has having a corn ever "saved the day?"

We all enjoy our corns or we wouldn't be here, but has having a corn snake in your household ever "saved the day" in some way? I ask because it happened in my house yesterday. I arrived home from work, ready for a cold drink of water and a shower, turned on the faucet and - nothing. No water. Not a drip. Checked with neighbors - same issue at their house.

We live in hurricane country, so the idea of keeping drinking water on hand is not new to us - but it isn't hurricane season yet. Fortunately, I have a corn snake. Because of her, I had about 6 gal of safe, available water. That was enough for the family to drink, cook, brush teeth, wash faces. Okay, so we didn't get showers.... So Yohsong's presence saved the day. :spinner:






Now it's your turn. Let's hear your stories of how your snake(s) helped you out.
 
They haven't ever saved the day...but if the Jehovah's Witnesses came by they surely would!

"you need to be saved"
"I have snakes"
"bye"
:)
 
:laugh01:

I've had a similar event to those that have been visited by the Jehovah's Witnesses. (We should start a religion- the Jehovah's Witnesses' Witnesses.) My grandmother is a... 'less likeable' kind of person- I know it sounds aweful, but if you met my grandmother even for just an hour or so you would know what I mean. Anyways, she hates animals of all kinds and is allergic to mammals and aves, so of course my family stocks the house with cats, dogs, parrots, fish, rabbits, guinnea pigs, horses, etc. to keep her at bay. So, she decides to visit me at my boarding school one day, away from my Great Wall of Animals. :eek:

No worries, the beautiful pink, red, and brown snakes are here to save the day! She was gone when I took all three of them out at once. :rofl:
 
I can relate to Topazfyre, I have a less than liked Sister-in-law to be, (we really can't understand why my hubbies brother is marrying her, she's a nasty piece of work) and the one thing that keeps her from visiting with my Hubbies Brother is the fact that I have snakes :grin01:

It saves a lot of unpleasantness :)
 
I once fell and broke my hip. My corn snake, seeing that his human was in a terrible situation from which he may never recover, decided to take it upon himself to escape from his cage, slither to the phone, and dial 9/11.

Not really.
 
No corn snake has ever saved the day for me.

Clearly, this is a job for........

Did you say this was a job for Mighty MOUSE? I'm sure the cornsnakes would disagree....unless the mouse was *ahem* available for dinner. :)

Snakes can be effective unwanted-people-repellent. I guess maybe "the-snake-who-saved the day" is a rarer phenomenon that I thought...oh well.
