(As far as emotions I think if the keeper prefers to think of the snake or reptile as one with emotions than so be it, especially if it makes the keeper more interested or more committed and more likely to give the animal what it deserves)
My bath tub has a shallow step (about 3-4 inches high) the water was deep enough for him to submerge himself if he wanted, and the towel was more for traction onto the step of he wanted out.
