A Burlington, N.C. pet owner posts that her 7-foot-long common boa, Abaddon, went missing on Sunday night.

"She is my pet, and I love and care about her just as much as one may love and care about a dog or cat, albeit more. She means so immensely much to me. She, to make this short, escaped her enclosure which was left unlocked mistakenly and is now suspected to be outside. I have searched everywhere and everything that I could," Wolf Massey posted to her Facebook page.

Massey says Abaddon has been missing since approximately 3 a.m. Sunday morning.

She says that anyone near St. Marks Church, Alamance Crossings, or Joe Davidson Park should keep a look out.

"Please do not harm her," Massey pleads.

Burlington Animal Services shares on Facebook that Abaddon is approximately seven feet long and weighs 28 pounds. She is non-venomous.

It's likely that Abaddon is still very near her home, Animal Control says.

Although she is a pet and not aggressive, Animal Control asks that people do not attempt to capture or harm her.

If you see Abaddon, contact Animal Control at 336-578-1386, or 336-229-3500 after business hours.
