I also have a BP and two cats, one cat won't come anywhere near the BP, as soon as I go to pull him out of his cage the cat is GONE!!! The other cat could care less, although I always make sure to keep a close eye on them.
Actually, the other day I was sitting on the couch with my BP, and my cat, who happens to be siamese, came up and laid down on the couch to go to sleep. The BP went over to check her out, and my cat just lifted her, looked at the BP, and put her head back down, without a care in the world. Of course I wouldn't actually let the BP go over there, but they don't seem to care about each other at all.
