This kind of problem is generally solved using threads, or some kind of non-blocking I/O event loop. I have no idea how Pika does it - I think it depends on which kind of consumer you've set up - but I'd suggest you try asking on the pika mailing list - https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/pika-python.
