Hello all...

My name is Dave, and just wanted to say hi. I am 37 years old, and have had animals, of various types, all my life. I have a passion for reptiles, especially snakes, and am a very dedicated reptile keeper. I have a group of carpet pythons, green tree pythons, and boas. I have also always had cats, I have three currently, a large older Maine Coon girl, a back male, and a tonkinese male. I also like fish, especially loaches, and have a couple of large clowns.

I look forward to getting to know those here and chatting in the future.

Dave

Hello, Dave! To the forum!

I wonder how your cats and snakes react to each other.

I can see why you like loaches. They are more "snake" like. Clown loaches are indeed large fish.

Look forward to add your experience and knowledge to our forums!

I only have 1 cat that even cares anymore really, he likes to watch everything in the house. My maine coon just looks at me like, "again? what is with these leggless things?" They are more interested in the lizards. I let my golden tegu play with the cats sometimes, supervised of course. The poor cats don't know what to do with it

You have to be careful. I have seen video of a cat killing a snake.

No, cats and snakes don't meet. For the most part, they are not harmonious species. Lizards, sometimes, on the other hand...

Cats are usually the problem. They are most likely to kill something just for fun. Snakes will only defend themselves.
