The difference between a RAT or large rodent being fed to snakes is that snakes do not naturally eat cats in the wild.

Very well put. Not only that...... if the kitten were in the wild and happened to come upon a snake..... the kitten would instinctively be leery of it and on guard. It is only that this kitten trusts humans that this psychopath is able to do this.

So it is okay for you if they feed him mice? And if it is okay for you, mice are also pets and trusts humans, Same goes with your kitten born in the wild, mice can also be in the wild and would instinctively be leery and guard against a snake either. You yourself are eating cow or pig or whatever, then you are a psychopath cause some pigs are pets too and trusts humans

Snakes are actually pretty good pets but too many people get them to be "cool" and don't have a clue how to care for them. Snakes need more attention than people think or realize, they also should have proper caging and the majority of the people out there with snakes don't even have half of what you need. I also believe certain types of snakes shouldn't be pets. I do believe that now in FL you need a license for this particular snake as well as other pythons and it's sad because there are people out there who take care of their snakes but it's the one who don't that ruin it for the rest.
I am a big snake lover and would love a snake, a lavender corn snake is my preference, but I want to wait til I can afford the proper caging for the snake and proper care. I have no problem feeding it live mice or rats, that is how it would eat in the wild!
You made a comment about how we don't eat live animals, well we aren't a snake! In a snakes natural environment what they eat is alive as are many other animals that get eaten in the wild....Lions, tigers, bears and so on all tend to catch live prey.

I love animals and I love cats but how is this different than feeding the snake a live rat or mouse? Are they not cute enough to be saved? Is that what it is?
Yes what this kid does is cruel but in the wild this snake would eat anything it came across, kittens included.
Why is it ok to feed a snake one animal yet not another when again in the wild it wouldn't make a difference.
Like i said this animal is domesticated and you can give frozen food to a snake.
That why there is a huge difference.
Snake like python would eat you too , is that the case here no why because again the python is domesticated.
a lot of people obviously want to give them the role of god , chosing who have to die and live this is #ed up.edit on 4-12-2011 by cyberether because: (no reason given)

If you made a video with a mouse/rat/WHATEVER,
put it in a santa hat,
started playing with it on the bed, acting all lovey-dovey with it,
and then started laughing deviously and saying hateful, disturbing things,
with Little Drummer Boy playing in the background,
as you watch the snake torture and devour it.
THEN, go and post it on Youtube/internet,
and boasting and bragging about it.
YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT I'D HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT.
And I'd MAKE DAMN SURE you get what you deserve and that as many people as possible- the whole world if possible- knows exactly what kind of sick person you are.
The fact that it's a live, domesticated, adorable kitten- that this guy took the time TO NAME!- adds insult to injury.
IT'S THE PURPOSE/INTENT THAT IS SO HORRIBLE.
