A little detective work determined that the snake had escaped two weeks ago from its cage in the apartment of a doctor whose family lives four floors below the Lasrys.The apologetic owner said his son's pet snake likely traveled up the water pipes and into his neighbor's apartment."It's a very gentle,very harmless snake,"he said:"It's handled by our family all the time."
David Lasry believed the pet was simply hungry after two weeks of wandering.Evelyn said her son seems to have overcome his fright by thinking of himself as a hero cowboy as he rode in the back of the police car to the hospital.
"I told Teddy he's a pretty snake,a nice pet snake who got out of his cage."Evelyn said."But he asked,‘Why did he bite my finger,Mamma?'And I said,‘Because he saw that you are a big boy,Teddy,in your cowboy outfit and he got scared.'"
