    My dad's building the cages so the plexiglass is quarter inch thick and doors have double slider bolts on it and the snakes are in my bedroom in which the bedroom door is kept closed except for when we go to bed..

    It's sure nice to be able to put a padlock on the tank, that way only you can take out the snake. You'd never want someone who didn't know what they were doing messing with a big snake like that.

    I have dogs not cats but the concern is the same. Basically if the door to one of the enclosures is being opened - whether or not we intend for the snake to come out - the dogs are physically removed from the area. Either the dogs go out in the yard, or the door to the snake room is closed.
