Bristol Borough officials were looking for a 9 1/2-foot snake, and on Wednesday somebody captured one under a cardboard box. Unfortunately, this was somehow the wrong snake — it was albino — and so the snake that has been eating kittens is still on the loose.
The dark-colored fanged fugitive still at large - and we do mean large - became a reptile of interest after a headless stray cat was found under a house last week.
The next day the carcass was gone, and neighbors said a cat that had seven kittens under the house now has only four.
Earlier this week, a pigeon was put in a metal trap by animal control officers from Bristol borough and Bristol Township. The trap was tripped and the bird’s wing clipped, but whatever was responsible got away.
Attempts to find the snake in the crawl space - and smoke it out - were also unsuccessful.
Anyone who sees the snake is asked to call 911.
Ha ha! This is the smartest snake in the world. Pretty soon it’s going to be elected mayor of Bristol and enact a kitten breeding plan (so it can eat all the kittens it wants).
