Woman Attempts To Use Toilet And Opens Lid To Find Snake Inside Toilet Bowl

A daycare worker said she is now too terrified to use the bathroom in her own house in Burnley, England, after opening the toilet lid to discover a snake in the water.

Kacey-Leigh Moss went to use the toilet around 6 am when she stated she suddenly noticed a snake’s head on the toilet seat.

The 21-year-old dashed to get her boyfriend Harvey and called the RSPCA to retrieve it.

When an RSPCA representative arrived later that morning, he discovered that the snake had returned to the pipes.

Kacey-Leigh, from Burnley in Lancashire, said: “I woke up at about 6 am to go to the toilet and as I turned the light on and got closer to the toilet I could see a snake’s head lying on the toilet seat.

“As I got closer it was all spiralled inside the toilet. I just completely froze. I’d never been so scared in my life.”

Kacey-Leigh stated that she and her boyfriend began Facetiming individuals, who did not trust them, so she shared the photographs on Facebook.

She added: “Harvey tried to get some close-up pictures of it and as he’d gotten close to it, it kind of jumped at him.

“We googled possible places where they could come and collect it. The RSPCA didn’t open until eight so we had to wait two hours to be able to ring them. They said it’s quite an unusual situation. It’s very rare obviously in the UK.”

According to Kacey-Leigh, the RSCPA worker attempted to use a hook to help the snake crawl out, but the creature’s stomach became hooked in the pipe, forcing it to wiggle farther down.

“I feel awful that it’s potentially lurking in my pipes still. I’m petrified, I can’t even go for a wee. Luckily I’ve not needed the toilet yet but when I do I don’t know what I’m going to do.”

Kacey-Leigh said: “I don’t know whether it’s from the sewers, whether it’s somebody’s pet that’s escaped from my street. I genuinely don’t know.

“The RSPCA woman said it’s not likely that the snake would want to be in the water so she was confused as to why it went back down because they don’t tend to live in water because they can’t breathe.

“I feel like I can’t rest until I find it. I’m just glad it wasn’t in my bed instead. I’m definitely glad I didn’t use the toilet before realising it was in there.

“I’ve definitely got a phobia of them now.”

According to Kacey-Leigh, the toilet hadn’t been flushing properly for a few weeks, so this snake could have been lurking in the pipes for quite some time.

A Gentle Reminder: Every obstacle is a stepping stone, every morning; a chance to go again, and those little steps take you closer to your dream.
