By witness accounts, the snake is longer than a car, thicker than a human arm and black with white X's running down its scales.

The first sign of its existence was the carcass of an orange and yellow adult stray cat — minus its head — found under a house that sits on cement pilings.

Then, a bloody mess of flesh, feathers and blood — presumably a dead bird — was discovered. Now, kittens are missing.

The snake is still on the loose.

New Port Richey residents have been terrorized by this snake — most likely a boa or python — for about 10 days, officials said. The snake is the second spotted in as many days. Officials caught a 91/2-foot albino Burmese python Wednesday. Both reptiles are believed to be escaped pets.

On Thursday, animal control services tried to capture the black snake, presumably hiding in a maze of burrows beneath the home. But the reptile eluded them.

The snake situation began a month ago when Joe's outdoor cat, Kitty, bore seven kittens under the neighboring house. In the following weeks, Lisa and her friends checked on the felines.

Then, one day last week, Lisa's friend found the headless stray under the house. The next day, the entire carcass was gone, he said.

“I'm assuming he ate it,” Kile said.

Then he saw the bloody bird and no sign of Princess Jr. or her kittens.

During that same period, neighbors said they saw portions of the snake slithering through the grass past a tire or the side of a home under the night sky. People said they saw it only after midnight. And when they did, they chased after it with knives, said Bristol's animal control officer Bart Krause.

Earlier this week, the snake chase was on. Krause and his counterpart in Bristol Township, William Kurko, along with Bristol Township police officer and snake expert Steve Sonacki tried to catch the snake. They boarded up all entry and exit ways under the house and plugged up some of the holes in the ground.

A humane, metal “coyote” trap was placed right outside the house Tuesday. The men placed a live pigeon inside to lure the reptile into captivity.

That night, the snake came into the cage and pierced the pigeon's wing with its fangs. The trap's door fell. But the snake was too long to be caught. More than half its estimated 10-foot body hung outside the cage. So the animal just pulled itself out under the trap's door, Kurko theorized.

The pigeon was still alive Thursday, bleeding and still at the bottom of the cage, as television cameras surrounded the property to capture what they hoped was the trapping of an exotic, cat-eating snake.

On Thursday afternoon, the men set off canisters of Raid fumigation fog in the holes under the house to “smoke out” the snake. Instead, out came Princess Jr., her dark-colored kitten now named Zena and her gray kitten now named Lucky. Kurko went under the house and pulled out a calico that has since been named Miracle.

No other cats have been found, leaving four of the seven young felines unaccounted for, Remer said.

With no sign of the snake, a plumber was called in. His camera, attached to yards of snake-like wires, was sent underground through several of the holes. The camera revealed nothing — no snake or dead kittens — on a portable, black-and-white television screen.

A rumor had spread that a woman who lived a few doors down owned a boa. But a man who answered the door at the house said that was years ago, and the boa was taken back to the pet store.

The television crews cleared out. And the animal control services told the residents to call 911 when they see the snake again. They said they would respond quickly.
