Heard a creepy story. Lady had a pet python or boa I forget. Was like a kid to her, ate steadily and she let it sleep with her and stuff, was never caged. One day it stopped eating, so she let it go for a little then got worried and took it to the vet. Explained to him that the snake is like her child, eats well, sleeps with her etc. The vet flipped and said the reason it stopped eating was it was preparing to eat her while she was sleeping. Snakes stop eating when anticipating a large meal and naturally while sleeping next to her snake she was an easy meal. Scary as fuck.
