-a pet, my cousin Ashley recently purchased a snake. She decided to get the one from the pet store that was bigger than all the other snakes. Unfortunately, after getting it home, the snake soon became ill. Ashley took the snake to the veterinarian, who told Ashley that the snake just needed a little time to adjust. After hearing this, the snake's home was redecorated with plants and rocks that resembled its natural habitat. Soon after this, the snake became well and used to Ashley's touch, which Ashley named Happy. Hanging around her neck, Ashley goes everywhere with Happy. Although Happy may have gotten used to Ashley, none of Ashley's friends have gotten used to Happy who is afraid of snakes.
