Snakes Love Sleepypods
If the snake in the above video had been in a Sleepypod while traveling, he would be safe from that fierce rabbit.
This handsome guy on the right is Mr. Python. Most snakes live to be approximately 60 years old, so they are a lifetime pet if taken care of properly. Most pet owners, like any pet owner, don't like to leave their snakes at home alone when they travel. That is why the Sleepypod is such a great product.
My neighbor breeds pythons. He had about 10-15 smaller snakes that he had sold, and only had his two breeders (which are about 3 feet long) at home.
He and his wife had planned to go out of town to show off their new baby and he wanted to take the breeders with them.
When he came home from the hospital with his wife and their new baby, one of the breeders was not in its cage. He almost had a heart attack looking for it. Not to worry, the baby was fine. But like most animals, snakes can get into and out of a great many things.
So I told him about the Sleepypods. When he found out how much of a life saver a Sleepypod warmer could be, he bought two to keep his snakes warm in the Sleepypods. Although some of the warmer kits are a little pricey, there is a medium sized warmer you might want to check out Here.
Their visit to their relatives, and even their stay in a motel, where pets were accepted, posed no problems. He told me that with the Sleepypods, he feels he can take his snakes everywhere without having to worry about them being home alone.

Doesn't Mr. Python look like he would just love to curl up in a Sleepypod and travel in the car with you?
Yes, snakes like small, warm places.
If you are a snake breeder or a snake lover, you might be able to relate to this story about another snake lover and breeder.

Some great features of the Sleepypod are that bedding can be placed in the inner lining and dumped out before washing. The outer shell wipes clean with a damp rag. The inner lining is completely machine washable, and will last for many years.
Traveling with snakes in colder weather like here in Minnesota is a challenge. But with the heating pad warmer it can be quite easy. The warming pad can be placed on the bottom on one side of the Sleepypod (or any cage) for the snake's comfort. It plugs into a cigarette lighter if you are in your car, or a wall socket if you are in a building that has electrical sockets. For very warm climates where your snake might overheat, pads can also be purchased to keep your snake cool.
Making sure your snake, as well as those you may visit, are safe and happy is a wonderful way to bring your pet with you no matter where you may go. Sleepypods are also approved for airline travel.
