Yes, that’s his name! Snake was not microchipped or ever reported missing when he slithered across his now-carer’s driveway. As luck would have it, one of the owners of the driveway has loved and handled reptiles all his life! Snake’s history may remain a mystery but his future is certain – he has found his forever home where he is much loved. Snake is an albino carpet python with a distinctive and endearing personality. He lives in quite a palatial enclosure (vivarium) with two swimming pools (water bowls), a country estate (cave at one end) and Manhattan apartment (cave at the other end). Snake enjoys time out of his enclosure each evening for some exercise and loves nothing more than a bit of TV/couch time with this wonderfully committed carer. ‘I absolutely adore Snake. He is like a shining jewel in my every day,’ says Sharon.
