Hi there and thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach to address your concern. If it is in the same room as Snickers and out of reach, it should not cause any problems. Direct contact or ingestion of the mask could lead to problems. As long as you keep this up high and away from Snickers it can be in the same room. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and I would be more than happy to help you further.
