Much-loved family pet Tiger died when the scrub python tried to eat it, but the feline's owners only found out when it saw the dead cat peeping out of the snake's decomposing body.
Francis Bakvis was horrified when he came face to face with his sixteen-year-old cat – inside the stomach of the dead snake.
