how do BP's react with kittens and such?

simple. can i take my BP out around other animals. currently have a kitten and wondering if i need to keep them apart?

Can your snake be in the same room as your cat? Yes.
But it's not recommended to let your snake interact with other species. It's for the safety of both animals even though both can be well behaved. It takes one wrong move for an accident to happen. Not to mention interaction with your cat may stress out the snake. So while it's ok to have them in the same area as each other, don't let them interact.

I would keep them apart. This is the type of thing that sounds great in your head, but is just a terrible idea. Please don't. :please:

I've had my snake around my cat sense it was a baby. They get along just fine. But it's not for everyone. I wouldn't have my snake around my bunny tho. In most cases it's a bad idea but u also find some where they get along. I'm kinda with everyone else with this one thoe if u don't know how the cat or snake will react. Also depends how big the cat is. If it's a small kitten it's not a good idea.

I actually laughed out loud when I read this .... In my opinion it would just be tempting wild nature and it's all fun and games till someone gets choked out .... But then again that's just my :2cent: But after reading this post evidently ppl have actually done this ..... :confuzd:

Keep them apart

Keep them apart or your dog might put your ferret's head in its mouth. Wait, that wasn't the question here...

Just keep them apart anyway.

This is the kind of thing I expect to read in the comments section of the latest "10 foot Killer Ball Python Loose In The City" article - not from one of the members of this site. Shame on you for perpetuating the irrational fear already associated with this hobby in the general public's mind. :rolleyes:

So its irrational to fear that a ball python may latch onto a kitten? I dont agree. A kitten most certainly could be grabbed by a ball. Now if it was a grown cat I would be worried for the snake.

Cats will be cats and they like to play, catch, and kill so I say keep them apart. I have never seen a cat or snake that was trained to drop it, leave it, or release. So getting them apart if they lock up is going to be tough.

There is nothing to gain from this and its not worth the risk.

Nothing wrong with having them in the same room. But don't let them get to close or interact because it might stress out the snake and if ur cat happens to claws the snake it could rlly injure him.
