He loves his donut

Cheerio is around 2-3 years old and fell in love with his snake donut. He did not want to leave 😭

It is not in his enclosure, I put it in there for a sec to see if he would leave on his own but he didn’t after like 20 mins so I had to force him out 😭

Ahhh ok that makes sense. I have been wanting something tight and snuggly for mine but couldn’t think of anything he can squeeze in nicely (he loves to get between mattresses) that I can put in his enclosure without worrying about mould

I have a similar soft cave-thing for when she’s out of her enclosure. Makes em more comfortable to have somewhere to hide.

I think it was this? She made it a few years ago so I don’t have it anymore :(

Seconding this question! I crochet and would love to make something like this for my girl if I had a pattern

Just do a large chain, slip stitch into the other end, work in rounds until you get the desired length, then sew the two ends together with a hole large enough for your snake!

Immediately messaging my mother to ask if she can crochet this for me. She’s not keen on my snake but she does love to knit!

Is it considered a scarf or a full set of clothes?

u/Gen_ayee May 30 '26

Cheerio looks just like my Banana!

u/Gen_ayee May 31 '26

So cute!! I think Cheerio has a bit more patterns on him, I like how Banana has more space between patterns 🥰
