Receive status code after python requests ConnectTimeout

Is there a way to receive the status code of a request if the request throws an exception? I am trying to send a request, but there is a ConnectionTimeout. I've tried printing the error, but there's not useful status info in the error message. The actual object that is returned by requests.request() doesn't seem to get created when the exception is thrown, at least in my case. Could this be due to internal server configurations or something?

What I have attempted:

try:
    response = requests.request(
        method=some_http_method,
        url=some_url,
        auth=some_auth,
        data=some_data,
        timeout=30,
        verify=some_certificate)
except requests.exceptions.ConnectTimeout as e:
    response = e.response 
    print(e)
    print(response.status_code) # should print a status code, instead response is still None

The exception ConnectTimeout means that the request timed out while trying to connect to the remote server. Thus, there's no response to get the status code from. it is normal that response variable is None

It can be some network issue, make sure the URL you're trying to query is reachable (use curl to verify)
