When Elly found Sneely on one of her jobs, it was in a tank of water and just watching her the whole time. Sneely watched her getting closer to the tank and its whole body started to wiggle like crazy. Its head was perfectly still at first, but when Elly reached for the tank's locked top, Sneely's tongue and head went a-waggling too! She barely had the tank open before Sneely leapt out and into Elly's arms.

She knew right then that she needed to keep it. It would require some convincing for Gabby to accept this, though. It was an experiment with unknown abilities and unknown purpose, so it could prove to become dangerous. After a bit of an introduction though, Gabby was convinced that if it ever became a problem, Elly would do the right thing.
