A leash for my snake (hear me out)

I do not trot, Slim. I frolic.

I saw a guy at the park with 2 redtail boas and 2 carpet pythons . People are generally allowed to bring their pets into certain public spaces, this applies to snakes too. They don't need to have any special status for that. But you have to understand that a lot of people don't like snakes so you might have to put up with negative comments or people freaking out. Plus, they tend to attract a lot of attention (the guy I saw was wearing a local herp club t-shirt and was using it as an opportunity to educate), so if you have social anxiety it might be counterproductive to draw all that attention to yourself. But if pets are allowed in your park, go for it!

An ESA just means that your doctor thinks it's good for your mental health to have a pet to care for. So that's why they're allowed in no-pets housing.

Yeah public spaces. I'm pretty sure it's 100% legal for stores and restaurants to kick them out

Going inpatient at the hospital for a few days starting tomorrow. Pretty sure they won't let us share a room. :p

However, and I do not mean to draw attention to myself at all. Many others have it much, much worse, and I am very lucky considering my condition, which is mostly just annoying. But that's how bad it gets sometimes. I should perhaps look into a more suitable ESA, yeah?

Although if ANYTHING ever happens to Henry...

Can we go back to brainstorming that snake leash idea? I would totally get one, my danger noodle likes to slither away way too quickly.

The leash idea sounds really good however the only real problem I find with it is how would you keep the BP or any other snake from slithering right on out of it ? Can't have it too tight or too loose and I can't see how there could be a "perfect" fit.....I'm very new to this but just pondering some logic and theory here

It depends on what you need from an ESA. Do you need an animal that is affectionate and loving? Or something really zen? What do your local laws say?

Personally I say you can't go wrong with a good dog for an ESA. I'd find a solid animal from good lines that have the chops for service dog work as you seemed keen on having a public access animal. You may or may not need a service animal but a lot of the service dog tasks can be trained into any dog that you may find very helpful like medication reminders, deep pressure therapy and the like.
