I thought this was going to be about <a href="http://www.20min.ch/ro/rechercher/story/20183179" rel="nofollow">the story I read in the local free newspaper</a> (bus-seat-protection). A pet python swallowed the family's chihuahua, after having already previously feasted on the cats and hamsters. The father said he was worried for the kids. Oh!
