Alright, anyone here know a thing or two about snakes?
I heard a whining, meowing sound outside my front door,. It sounded vaguely like a cat, but not any sound I'd ever heard a cat make. It was happening maybe every 3 or 4 seconds.
Went to check it out, and after opening my door spooked what looked like a long, black snake, and it went slithering into the bushes in front of my house. It was longer than a foot, easily, and decently thick. Real snake territory, not any of those pussy shits you usually see around.
And the noise is gone with it, so I'm sure that the snake was the one making it. I thought for a moment maybe I was hearing the death cries of a kitten or something it was eating, but those wouldn't stop just because the snake dragged it into some foliage.
I'm trying to figure out what type of snake it is. I'm trying to identify it by the sound it made, because I didn't get a great look at it, but google is giving me jack shit in that regard, so I'm at a loss. I have two dogs, and i'm vaguely worried about taking them out now that I know i got this fucking black mamba looking motherfucker kicking around in the shadows, and I don't know if he's dangerous.
I live in central Florida, if that helps.

The snake was not making that sound.
Snakes aren't vocal animals.
> It was longer than a foot, easily.
Thats a very small snake

If it is not obvious, I am no snake expert.

more likely you had some other animal, rodent or something, near the snake making the noise. Snakes make a hissing noise sometimes but not anything approaching a meow.

A lot of snakes are a foot long when they're born/hatch
You probably saw a young (>6 months) black rat snake
>>
probably some cat or small mammal trying to scare the snake off with noise

Black Mambas don't live in Florida, they are found in Africa. The 4 venomous snakes of Central Florida are cottonmouths, coral snakes, Pygmy rattlesnakes, and eastern diamondback rattlesnakes.

It was probably eating something. Keep that black snake around, I love them, they're really cool. I've seen some here in Missouri that look like they're three feet long, maybe longer.
