Humane Society Says Snake Probably Didn't Slither Through Pipes

A hotel guest in La Vista, Neb., awoke to a strange and slithery sight sitting in her toilet: a 3-foot ball python.
The woman spotted the surprise snake before sitting down. With some help from the Nebraska Humane Society, she got the snake into a pillowcase, reported Omaha TV Station KETV.
Officials with the Nebraska Humane Society said they estimated the python found Thursday morning at the Hampton Inn was about 3 years old. They said pythons aren't typically found in Nebraska, so it's likely this python was a pet.
They added that pythons don't like water, especially cold water, so it's unlikely the snake slithered through sewer pipes.
A caregiver with the Nebraska Human Society said they will wait five days for the owner to come forward before they put it up for adoption.
A spokesperson from Hampton Inn & Suites said the company is investigating where the snake came from.
The hotel said it has a no-pet policy.
