Gophiss

Gophiss makes a great pet for Seth and Jonah

Is Jonah looking at the snake or himself?

He eats six mice a week, and I have a hard time saying goodbye to the mice. The constricting is the hard part. I can't help but think of Ratatoule, Stuart Little, Ralph and the Motorcycle, even Mickey Mouse; so many cute characters we all love. Violet was in their bedroom during the last feeding. She was so excited watching the mouse run around the cage. Then when Gophiss struck the mouse she said, "Uh, Oh." After most of the mouse was down she said, "Bye." She doesn't talk much but she seemed to have a good idea what was going down with that poor mouse.
