Hi,

My friend is looking to home a Burmese python... But she has 2 cats and I wondered if this may be picked up by the python and if it would cause any issues? The plan is to keep the python in a room where the cats will not be allowed but I wanted to find out if it may smell them on her and if this will be a problem?

Does anyone have large snakes and cats? And is there any issues you have experienced with this?

Thanks, Nic :)

I wouldn't imagine it'll cause any real problems my boa was friendly enough around small bitesize dogs :-)

Awe that's good to hear. I've been doing research and I had come across a care sheet that made me worry about the snake smelling food with the cat scent being around. It's great to have real feedback from owners with other pets on this one. :)
Thanks guys x
