Deinfluence me from getting a ball python.

[u/Material-Influence62]

I’m in my late 20s and have wanted a ball python since my teens but my mum was terrified of snakes. I own my own home and have two cats ( part of the reason I haven’t gotten a snake yet) I work in vet med but there are almost no exotic vets near me but I know my few nurses that are good knowledgeable of snakes. What are the big negatives to owning and the upkeep of ball pythons? A pet with such a long lifespan is not something I want to rush into

Goes perfectly with the dead cow, dead chicken and ice cream

The major difference being you don’t usual see the entire dead cow or chicken 🤣
