Does anybody remember the last contest we ran? Where we asked everyone to send us cute photos of their pets and their shoes together? A la the great William Wegman?

Remember?

And do you know what absolutely no one  sent us?

A picture of their snake.  Which, if you think about it, is not exactly surprising. For one thing, there’s no real way to festoon a pair of rollerskates on a snake. (Don’t google it. Just trust us.) And for another thing, well, it’s hard to make a snake look cute. 

I believe Disney tried at one point…

…with less than spectacular results.

But (awkward segue alert!) do you know what you can do with a snake? That’s cute? And flirty? And fun?

You can wait until it molts, steal the skin its just shed, smooth out the edges, and turn it into a hot pair of kicks! 

Like these ‘Para Ti’ Sandals from Coco Belle…

Or these Exotic Kitten Heels, by All Black for Barefoot Tess…

And if snakeskin isn’t your thing, well who knows, maybe soon, someday, we’ll diversify…

Bear Foot Tess anybody?
