Good Luck on finding your Snake. A few years ago I might have said “A Snake?†but sense then I know loving pets come in many shapes and sizes. A few years back all my daughter wanted for Christmas was a Turtle. I found out how much time proper care of a Turtle would take, and knew a lot of it would fall on me. Well I actually have a lap turtle! He responds to his name and we can take him out in the yard and he let’s neighborhood kids pet him, no retreating into the shell. He’s about 5 years old now and I won him over with shrimp, I believe. He’s so friendly and trusting he would not survive in the wild. You’re doing the right thing with the mice, etc. One day Bob (turtles name) lodged himself under some
furniture and only some Xtra large shrimp would bring him out! Because he was a Christmas gift, each year we allow him to pick out a Christmas movie. We lay out the DVD’s on the floor and he always walks over to A Christmas Story! Probably the colors of the box but it cracks us up! Would your snake head to your car engine for warmth? I’ve always heard of snakes being found there. Is HE named after Alice Cooper? The only HE Alice I could think of! If so that’s funny! Good Luck!
Your turtle picks your movies?
LOL
Offer him a copy of “Gamera” next Christmas and see if he picks that...:)

I know people with house Tortoises who follow them *everywhere* like devoted dogs.
Nobody ~really~ knows *how* much is going on inside their heads.
I can’t see him getting out to where the cars are parked.
Too much open space to cross and they don’t like that at *all*.
Yes, he’s named after The Coop.
[it sure beat naming him “Monty”]
;)
