    not to be cold hearted but why was the cats owner not ticketed for not properly housing their cat.

    it was in the other guys yard

    Seriously the cat shouldn't have been in the neighbors yard, from the sound of it. I wonder though, Replace the python with a dog would this have made news?

    people need to keep there animals confined to there property! I dont feel bad at all for the cats owner. She should of kept it in her yard. Everyone wants to complain about the everglades burms why not complain about all the feral cats EVERYWHERE!

    Apparently none of you have ever owned a cat before. Very few people keep their cat's indoors all the time. And I tell you, it's hard to do. Trying to keep 2siamese inside is a hard task. There are also no laws for keepign cat's inside or leashed. Try leashing a cat. Can't be done.

    If I undertand the article correctly, the snake was just allowed to roam the backyard? If that was the case, then it's the nsake owners fault for not properly housing the snake.

    ive had many many cats...its your responsibility to keep your animals in your own property period! no matter what kind of animal it is pets or even farm animals

    Neither the cat nor the snake should have been outside at all.

    And actually I have two cats right now, its not hard for me to keep them inside, because they have NEVER been outside! Nor should they, its not safe for them or for local wildlife like birds that they will kill. And I leash my cats.... its not hard to train them, they are smart.
