JoyBlue @cobwebmoth Thank you! 6y
JoyBlue @ReadOrDieRachel Hi back! I‘d never thought of snakes as being pretty before; but, he so is! 6y
DebinHawaii He is gorgeous! 🐍💚 6y
JoyBlue @DebinHawaii 🐍 💙 6y
BookishMe WOW 6y
ReadingEnvy Does he like to snuggle? 6y
jillrhudy Help me Lawd 😱😱😱😱 6y
Clare-Dragonfly What a pretty guy! Ball pythons are great. 6y
Buddys_Momma 😱 Snakes scare the daylights out of me but Milo seems pretty cool 6y
JoyBlue @ReadingEnvy We're pretty new to each other; but I think he's getting more comfortable with me each day. Yesterday, he stayed in a ball for a pretty long time before he started investigating. Today, he uncurled really quickly, and was really adventurous. 6y
JoyBlue @jillrhudy He's a sweetheart. No worries! 😉🐍 6y
JoyBlue @Buddys_Momma He is pretty cool! He's not very big yet, and he's unlikely to bite unless we're careless when we feed him. I think we're going to be good buds. 😁😎 6y
JoyBlue @Clare-Dragonfly I think so, too! I'm glad to hear that about ball pythons. 6y

We've all seen the cats, dogs and ferrets all over litsy. Well now it's time to meet Squishy, my Colombian Red Tail Boa. He enjoys college basketball, blankets and laying on the banister. I had to tell him that I had no plans as of yet to re-read The Passage Trilogy. He seemed intrigued. #petsoflitsy #gryffindorscanhavesnakestoo #squishy #boaandbooks

I-read-and-eat Such a cool pet! 8y

TheNextBook @I-read-and-eat thanks! @Libby1 🐍😃 @JustTrish He is about 7.5 feet. We usually measure by his shed. 8y
Laura317 Does Squishy have a favorite college team? Does he have a jersey of his favorite player? 8y
LeahBergen Hello, Squishy! 8y
TheNextBook @Laura317 We bleed blue over here! Go UK Wildcats! But no jersey, he lays in his UK blanket instead ☺️ @LeahBergen 🐍 8y
Suzze You snake looks lovely.....through my iPad screen. Don't get any closer. 🐍🐍🐍 8y
TheNextBook @Suzze 😂😂😂😂 8y
8little_paws Wow neat!! Do you usually keep him in a cage or tank? I've never had a pet snake. 8y
rubyslippersreads I see he likes books. 😄🐍 8y
TheNextBook @8little_paws he is usually in his tank but we take him out pretty often. My husband had one made for him so we can keep his climate controlled. I love him. Some people freak out around snakes but he is really calm and laid back. He'll sit for hours under a blanket in front of a tv! 8y
LauraBrook Aw, he looks so sweet! 8y
8little_paws @TheNextBook haha he watches tv with a blanket, I love it!! 8y
TheNextBook @LauraBrook he is a sweety! @8little_paws yes! We lay him under a blanket he sticks his head out and watched the tv! 8y
TheNextBook @rubyslippersreads yes! 😂 He has even tried being a bookmark while I'm reading. 8y
Eyelit Squishy seems pretty cool! 💙🐍 8y
fairlyliterary A pet that likes books? 👍 I've got a pet that kinda likes to read but he's a baby so his attention span isn't long 8y
DebinHawaii I am not normally a big fan of snakes close up but Squishy does look pretty cool.😀🐍 8y
TheNextBook @Eyelit yeah! He'a a bad ass! 🐍 @fairlyliterary Squishy's attention span is only good with the tv and when my husband holds him. @DebinHawaii he's my sweety! @Riveted_Reader_Melissa yes! I like that #snakesoflitsy and #booksandboa 8y
BookishFeminist 😂😂 Squishy! What a badass. He's seriously eyeing up those Cronin books! 8y
TheNextBook @BookishFeminist right!? My little sweetheart! 8y
fairlyliterary @TheNextBook Lol. That sounds like my little Jax, he's a gecko 8y
TheNextBook @fairlyliterary I love geckos! We had one that lived in our house when we were in Hawaii. We called him B.A.G. for big ass gecko! Damn thing was huge 8y
fairlyliterary @TheNextBook they're pretty cool.Lol B.A.G works 😂 Aww what happened to him? 8y
TheNextBook @fairlyliterary I don't know. He was still there when we moved! 8y
fairlyliterary @TheNextBook I suppose it's a mystery then. 8y
TheNextBook @fairlyliterary I hope he's okay! He just came into our home one day and I was happy to have him! Bugs in Hawaii suck and when he moved in, they all went away 8y
fairlyliterary @TheNextBook That's amazing that he just came into your life that way. If there's food for him he's probably fine 8y
