Canadian couple find second python in their home

When Janet Wilkinson opened her washing machine, she expected to find some laundry. Instead, she found a python. She shrieked, “Another snake!”

Finding a python living in your home, without your consent, is a lot to handle. But finding more than one? Well, that’s terrifying. The Royal Python Wilkinson found coiled in her washing machine on Friday night was the second snake she and her husband, Chris Forde, have found in their home in two weeks.



“Lightning only strikes in the same place once,” Wilkinson said at the couple’s home near Coxwell and Danforth Aves. on Saturday. “But last night it struck again — and it is probably going to strike three or four more times.”

One snake is an anomaly. Two snakes are a family. And a local pet store informed the couple that they’ll likely meet some reptilian siblings in the near future.
