Yea, I think have 'shown' my BP to my that cat (my sister's) outside of her tank a maximum of 3 times, and NEVER to my cat, so it even isn't a habit.
Besides, since day 1 that snake has been fed properly, her temps and humidity are monitored/maintained as they should, I change her water AT LEAST weekly, same thing with cleaning (not to mention that I spot clean AS SOON AS I see any filth). I don't know, but I think I'm quite able to keep a Ball Python... OBVIOUSLY as EVERYONE ELSE I have made a few newbie mistakes, but overall, I think I have done a great job... WAY BETTER than most people out there (excluding the vast majority of this forum )
The same risks exist in exposing pet cats to dogs and Vise-versa. I had a cat that was killed by a stray pit-bull, and I have a friend whose dog was blinded permanently by a cat. So, are you going to call stupid to everyone that has dogs and cats living together, and say that they shouldn't have them? (Just so you know, and I guess you do, both cats and dogs are WAY MORE aggressive by their nature than BPs) I know it's not the same thing, but it's not that far apart. I simply have known that cat for enough time to know it was safe to ASSUME she wouldn't strike at the BP. And still so, as I said, I was holding the BP on those three pictures, just to be safe...
Good night
