Snakes can plan. I have proof.....
When my dad (I am 17 so I still live at home), who isn't exactly a lover of snakes, came home, I was letting Sherlock crawl around the living room floor. He told me not to let that "thing" touch him or anything near him. Everything seemed fine after that, with Sherlock crawing back and forth on and off the carpet. All of a sudden he stops. Wondering what was up and why he was acting weird I lifted him up and discovered that Sherlock had just taken/was in the process of taking a huge dump right in the middle of my dad's antique carpet. Hoping my dad hadn't noticed, I gently lifted him and, resiting all urges to run, hurried the snake back in his cage. This would't have been such a big deal if my dad hadn't been home. Suprisingly, he didn't yell. His face, however, was a lovely shade of red comparable to a tomato. Shockingly after cleaning up snake feces and the "trail" leading to Sherlock's cage, I was not allowed to leave my room.
Sherlock the conspirator.
