Re: Man tries to feed kitten to boa
The way this kitten was treated was disgusting. I am glad to hear he went to jail and hopefully will do some time for it.
As for if it's OK to purposefully feed a cat/dog to a snake, my opinion is that it is wrong. Why? Well correct me if I'm wrong but I don't know of any snakes that feed on domesticated cats/dogs in the wild except for the areas were people and snakes share the same space. Because if it wasn't for humans in those areas keeping domesticated cats/dogs the snakes wouldn't ever cross paths with them.
Now rats/mice are a known food source for many different snakes in the wild. So I don't see a problem with feeding them to snakes. Just my :2cent:

It's a very sick kind of man that can drop kick a kitten.

I dont know of any snakes that eat the domesticated rats/mice that we as keepers feed them either. African soft fur rats and striped mice are natural for BPs, and so are some birds. Do you/would you feed your snakes birds then?
Humanely euthanized and fed off I can see it happening. Me personally, I couldnt. Just like I cant feed rabbits to giants. But are people wrong for it? IMO, no.

To answer your question I don't feed birds to my snakes but do feed ASF's. But at least with birds you can find the same bird people keep in a cage at home in the wild. I don't think there are many cats/dogs as we know them in the wild to be a food source to snakes.
But it's good we both have opinions even if we don't agree. :)
Re: Man tries to feed kitten to boa
I for one was discussed by the video. I could never feed a cat or dog to a anything. But when he drop kicked that kitten...:O Does it put another black cloud over reptile keepers? I think so. Not only do people see snakes as repulsive vial creatures. They see them as killers and what he did in the end of this video puts the same stamp on snake keepers. I have all of my reptiles in my basement of my house and when I have people over some of them will not go down there but they ask about them. The question always comes up what do you feed them POOR RAT and MICE? My answer is yes but they are F/T most of my snakes eat F/T they find that just as repulsing. In some peoples eye we can do nothing right snakes are evil and why would you want them? These are the question I always get and when I tell them I breed them... I am sure a lot of you get the same reaction. The discussion goes on and on.
Reptile keepers will always have the same type of reputation no matter what we try to do to change it. Just like a bikers. (I could not think of anything else) Usually when some one thinks about or mentions a biker the image in their head is of a big dude with long hair, a big beard, a bottle a Jack Daniels in their hand causing havoc every where they go. Anyway!
I think this video will have a negative impact towards the reptile community just like all of the other reptile related issues. If it shows a reptile involved that is the main focal point. I am all for stricter rules towards certain species. Many people should not be allowed to own the animals they do. One should have to have a certain IQ to own certain species. Just my opinion!

I feed ASFs as well. Keep it natural lol. And well said, sometimes it's best to just agree to disagree.
But we CAN agree that that guy needs to be punted just as that kitten was.
Re: Man tries to feed kitten to boa
Thats Disgusting! I would put that piece of :cens0r: in jail for life, in the same cell as a few guys from the Hells Angels.. Or Maybe the AB... Or even a Mafia Hitman... Everyone in the Mafia LOVES animals... They even displayed that in "The Godfather"... The godfather had a kitten... Hmm... I wonder what he would do to that guy.... :D

Yes, that would certainly teach him a lesson.
Of course, you'd spend the rest of your life in jail, or be executed yourself, but hey, the momentary satisfaction of kicking his teeth in would be worth that, wouldn't it?
I understand your feelings, but some thought prior to posting would keep a lot of non-snake keepers from thinking that all of us are crazed killers just waiting for an excuse to explode.
