Family needs help finding missing pet snake

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - A missing snake on the loose. It's been the talk of the city for several days now. The family says their boa Jax went missing Sunday and was last seen at their home in the Saguaro Subdivision area in Yuma near.

He slithered out after one of the family cats broke into his cage, and they haven’t been able to find him. The family took to Facebook to post about their missing pet and say they're grateful for all the community coming together to help him find his way back home.

"The fact that it has spread so much is something I never even dreamed would happen, but it's truly amazing to see how wonderful Yuma is and what a great small community it is when people really need help," said snake owner Sarah Deese.

If you happen to find Jax, you can contact the family through their Facebook at Sarah Deese.
