Whoaaaa why is everyone getting testy???

Actually I agree with you Python about your larger snakes turning the tables on a cat, though the cat could certainly inflict damage to the snake (much as any live prey could I suppose).

Where you can in some manner affect a cat's choice about it's prey item by conditioning it over time, I don't believe you can ever accomplish that with a snake so I completely agree that a cat, dog or other pet would not be very safe around any of the larger snakes. And yes a matter of seconds can be all it takes for disaster to strike, that's a risk anyone with different animal species takes.

What I'm saying is you cut down the risk factor as much as humanly possible, taking in the types of creatures you are personally dealing with, so ALL your pets remain safe and healthy.
