Elvis was the pet of Clarissa Darling (Melissa Joan Hart), a thirteen-year old girl who kept her pet alligator in a small sand-filled blue plastic pool (called "The Heart Break Hotel") in her upstairs bedroom.

TRIVIA NOTE: Elvis was also the name of the full-sized alligator owned by undercover police Detective James "Sonny" Crockett (Don Johnson) on the police drama MIAMI VICE/NBC/1984-89.

Elvis, who lived on board Sonny's boat, the "St. Vitus Dance," was the former University of Florida mascot (retired because he took a bite out of a University of Georgia free safety). He also has a clock inside of him because of a "Captain Hook" fraternity prank.
