Giant in her own mind

My daughters corn snake thought she could take on the family cat after she finished her mouse haha. The cat likes to sit up, they take great interest in each other.https://ball-pythons.net/gallery/fil...9/img_1660.jpg

When I had cats, my calico Patches used to love to watch the snakes. She sat in front of the cages purring because she thought they were her little buddies. :)

I could be missing it...but does that screen lid not have latches/locks?

My cat would do what cats normally do and knock that tank off the enclosure.

For the sake of any snake, I personally don't find the "socializing" all that "cute" between cats & snakes...cats are after prey, not pals, & they kill many helpless
pets, not to mention wildlife. I'd work on better protecting the snake's cage & extinguishing the cat's behavior or access. Neither one needs the other for a "pal'.

As our pets, both snakes & cats are adorable, but never forget they are both predators...& not ones that mix well.

And just because it never did that before, well tomorrow's another day...please protect your snake.

It only amounts for a good picture really. The snake is only thinking 2 things, food or fear. The cat is only thinking food.

My dog isnt even allowed in the same room as my reptiles, dont even own a cat cuz of how crazy the little :cens0r::cens0r::cens0r::cens0r:s are towards snakes, rats, etc.

It's nothing more than a picture of the cornsnake responding to the cat in what I thought was a funny way. Every animal we have from the dogs, the cat, the snakes or the kids are all safe and protected from any dangerous interactions with each other. Sometimes a funny picture is just that.

I wonder what Rainbow would think about your cat? Just kidding. Nice photo.

We're just trying to help. There is simply ZERO benefit to those to animals being face-to-face. It stresses the snake and isn't fair.
....and you didn't answer the question about the lid being secured. Are there clips or locks on it?
