Sunny, rescue 159

This sweet baby ball python keeps prolapsing (her intestines start to fall out when she poops). She's prolapsed three times in the last three weeks. 


My vet says it's not uncommon for babies to prolapse and his first treatment will be a small stitch in her vent. 


If that doesn't work, they will surgically attach the cloaca to the abdominal wall so it cannot be pushed out. 


We'll start with the stich on Monday and see how she does.
