When I was younger and living at my mother's house I bought a banded California king (Vivica) and told them all i'd be the only one to deal with it so it wouldn't be a problem. No one else in the house had to look at her or feed her or anything. One day i went and stayed a weekend with a friend; upon returning home i was informed that Vivica had "run away." My mother's story was that she got out of her locked terrarium in my absence. I did notice however that I raised her with manners as she somehow found a way to lock the terrarium behind her when she left...
