@dr_richard_ew tbh the noodle would be in more danger than the fluff. My snake wouldn't recognize her as a prey item (a lot to do with scenting, not gonna get into it) so she'd mostly just be trying to find a place to hide (her one and only hobby in life). The fluff might mistake HER for something to play with, though, and the scratches could cause a lot of problems for miss noodle.
'
Perhaps the fluff could teach her how to hiss, however. Currently I don't think she knows how to do it
@shikharizard pythons are constrictors and, indeed, not venomous. If she were larger or more aggressive/a different species it might be a problem, but for my snake specifically the kitten would only be in danger if my snake was trying to hold on to something and that something happened to be the kitten. Even then it's unlikely the kitten would get hurt

Ooooh I new pythons were wrappers, but I never knew that they weren’t venomous at all. As for being no threat to kitto- yes I figured that out. It would be nice for her to have a friend if similar sizing. Socialize your snake
Pythons are one of the few species of truly non-venemous snakes (a lot of other snakes aren't capable of harming HUMANS with the venom, but do still produce venom).
'
Haha ball pythons aren't social creatures by nature. Some of them can overcome this, but they're among the smallest Python species in the world (the males only get to 2-3 feet in length, and they're smaller than females). As a result a LOT of other animals are very content trampling or eating them. Including other snakes. Which is also part of why ball pythons are head-shy... they tend to get eaten head-first. Plus their heat-pits are sensitive. So boops should be done with care.
'
The moral is a lot of them get very stressed if they're handled or socialized too much. Must be why we get on so well

Venomous*
Also I assume you meant capable of harming without the venom- but dw, I understood ;)
.
Hahaha “boops should be done with care” - that made me smile.

You should meet my snake. He’s also relatively small, but very friendly. He loves being handled; I think you guys would get on famously. He responds better to females than males though.. maybe you could help me socialize him! I mean he’s made 1 or 2 friends over the years, but more is always better. He too spits venom, but it’s perfectly harmless.. though sometimes, purely by chance it can result in an 18 year hangover

@shikharizard well that IS the intended purpose of boops

I imagine yours must be a tropical variety that thrives best in dark, moist environments

@dr_richard_ew -eyebrows widen in surprise-
Don't worry, you still have a nice butt
'
@jasonmon every now and again you show up when I'm least expecting you on a post
@doc sorry bro, your name is a pain in the ass to type. You should be.
.
@Xvarnah See mama-bear! You do get me. Yes, it does thrive in those environments. Exactly those environments ;)
@Xvarnah he should be worried*
He’s already a pain in the ass.
.
Of course, very hot. Infernal. Though, not to worry. If there isn’t much heat when the snake gets started, there will be by the time it’s ready to spit venom ;)
.
Edit: Aviva was right. I do make everything dirty hahaha. I can’t help it
@dr_richard_ew if there's pain you may be doing it wrong
'
@shikharizard did you JUST realize this? <.<
Also I've become an expert at spelling your name now. Don't even have to scroll up to check

@Xvarnah Ofc not, but it’s at the point where the frequency is jumping out at even me. Makes me giggle almost as much as the dirty jokes do
@shikharizard Your comment history suggests otherwise <.<

I dont talk about money or success on online forums because most people who've given up on life and settled for mediocrity start trying to stone me... sex on the other hand- everyone can relate to.
.
Haven't you seen what happens when I do? People come out of the woodworks to tell me that any of my achievements are just luck and that progress is impossible. Its disgusting.
@shik Your achievements are just luck and progress is impossible. It's disgusting.

@xvarnah I do appear randomly sometimes! Sometimes if there's a totally adorable animal or a potentially controversial topic involved, I'll hit the Follow Comments button. I usually get inspired to comment at some point but if not, I still like seeing the post pop up.
@shikharizard I don't actually get overly involved in topics about money haha so I've never noticed. Sex on the other hand does sound more enjoyable either way
'
@jasonmon what if we're all just controversial animals? Also nice to know you're always there, in the shadows. Watching.
Much better. That star is incredibly annoying.
.
Also, to bring you up to speed, @Doc was being a white-knight, and I was hitting on you more, and more shamelessly than usual just to trigger him. All in all, quite enjoyable stuff.
.
But you should still help me socialize my snake ;)
@shikharizard so I was actually less confused than I thought I was <.<
'
And, again, my snake is close to 4 feet- pretty sure yours can't quite compete
'
Apparently @dr_richard_ew is willing to help though. Seems he's feeling equal-opportunity when it comes to socializing tonight

And, of course, hot. The hotter the better I imagine
