Kittens

Is it legal to feed snakes kittens? (Provided the snake is of adequate size of course)

Ask RSPCA and see what they think.

 

[iluvsmyreptiles]

And what would they say about the mice and rats that are used as feed also?

 

[iluvsmyreptiles]

And for those that are slow on the uptake, the question was "Is it legal?" I didn't ask if it was ethical.

 

[wattso]

live NO, dead yes, provided you didnt kill it.

If it's free feed it!!!

 

[iluvsmyreptiles]

for those that didnt know it, it is illegel to feed your animals live prey, so if your snake want eat dead prey it will just have to starve. Ethically I dont see a problem with feeding them kittens, they have as much rights as mice and rats to live or be food, and a snake has to eat, besides if I loved cats, mice or rats I wouldnt keep snake.

For what my opinion, and thats all it is, is worth, Australia and its whole envorinment would be far better off without cats, should be a cat free country, or at minimum no cats should be allowed to roam free.
Feed every cat you find to you snake, ill love to hear about it.
My two cents.

Respect Switch.
I did a uni subject called Wildlife Management, did you know that feral cats are responsible for 90% native mammalian extinctions under the weight of 5kgs. Shocking isn't it.
Having said this, I have a young cat. But I consider myself a responsible cat owner, only let him free range indoors and he has a cat run outside for exercise and if I take him on walks he is on a leash at all times.
After seeing first hand what cats do to our natives (have had bandicoots, possums, gliders, lorikeets, rosellas, bats, snakes and lizards die in my arms from cat attack) I do not want this on my conscience as a cat owner!

More people should made aware of their destructive natural urge to hunt , glad to see you are responsible, maybe if cat owners had to be 't be educated and licensed then the problem wopuld not be growing as rapidly, probably impossible te get rid of all the ferals now would you think?
