Age: Seven. Appearance: 1.66m, 32kg, razor-toothed reptile. Occupation: Emotional Support Alligator. What did you say? He has all the papers. What do you mean, bureaucracy? Wally’s owner, Joseph Henney of York, Pennsylvania, has a letter from his doctor stating that the alligator’s companionship is essential to Henney’s mental well-being. If he wants company, why doesn’t he just get a cat? I wouldn’t like the chances of a cat in the same house as Wally. Does Wally live at home? Wally and Henney sleep in the same bed and curl up on the couch to watch TV together. I guess what you do at home is your business. Henney takes WallyGator shopping with him. And last week, Wally made headlines when he was spotted hiding in the fountains of Love Park in Philadelphia, with passers-by stopping to hug him. Is this allowed? Is. WallyGator is an Emotional Support Animal (ESA) and has been since 2018. So what? In the US, discrimination has some legal force. An ESA cannot be banned by a pet-hating owner, for example, or banned from living in university accommodation. Cats, dogs, hamsters, goats and even peacocks have been claimed as ESAs. Can ESAs go on airplanes? This used to be the case, but recently the law has been tightened. ESAs are not service animals – they are not trained to help people with disabilities – and unscrupulous online ‘ESA mills’ have emerged, selling dubious psychological assessments and official-looking labels, leading to an epidemic of fake ESAs. What about the UK? You can get a letter from your doctor to show the Starbucks staff, but the law does not recognize an ESA. But can you get your alligator at Starbucks in the US? Not necessarily. In many states, it is illegal to own an alligator in the first place. But not in Pennsylvania. What happens when your emotional support alligator bites someone? WallyGator has never bitten anyone. “He’s a very sweet character,” says Henney. Would it be fair to say that Wally is the exception to the general rule about not sharing a bed with alligators? Yes, even Henney would agree. “It’s a very special gaiter, but I wouldn’t recommend anyone get it,” he says. “If you don’t know what you’re doing, you’ll get stung.” What’s next for WallyGator? Henney plans to enter him in an annual contest called America’s Favorite Pet. Meanwhile, Wally will grow bigger and heavier and live for about 80 years. Say, “Every day I wake up without food, that’s a good day.” Don’t say, “Is that your alligator bag in the overhead locker?”
