If anything the cat is more of a danger to the snake. The snake would strike out in defense but would never consider a 7 month cat as prey. Try this: Take some shipping tape and make loops of it sticky side out. Place several loops in every corner of the house and other strategic areas. Snakes usually crawl around the exterior walls of a house and sooner or later they hit the tape. A Ball Python of 4ft. will drag the tape around and you can hear it dragging the tape. If it gets freed from the tape you will at least know it was there. I have caught many snakes this way, sometimes months later.
