How about for the cockatiel, シロ (Shiro)? It means "white" and sounds like a good pet name. My host family in Japan had a white cockatiel named Shiro, actually.

And for the snake, how about ナガ (Naga)? It recollects back to the Japanese word for "long" (nagai), and it's also a mythological reference- the naga are a supernatural race of snake-like beings in Indian mythology.
