Emulating MATLAB's ode15s in Python

I am working on translating a model from MATLAB to Python. The crux of the model lies in MATLAB's ode15s. In the MATLAB execution, the ode15s has standard options:

options = odeset()
[t P] = ode15s(@MODELfun, tspan, y0, options, params)

For reference, y0 is a vector (of size 98) as is MODELfun.

My Python attempt at an equivalent is as follows: 

ode15s = scipy.integrate.ode(Model.fun)
ode15s.set_integrator('vode', method = 'bdf', order = 15)
ode15s.set_initial_value(y0).set_f_params(params)
dt = 1 
while ode15s.successful() and ode15s.t < duration:
     ode15s.integrate(ode15s.t+dt)

This though, does not seem to be working. Any suggestions, or an alternative?

Edit: After looking at the output, the result I'm getting from the Python is either no change in some elements of y0 over time, or a constant change at each step for the rest of the y0. Any experience with something like this?

According to the SciPy wiki for Matlab Users, the right way for using the ode15s is

scipy.integrate.ode(f).set_integrator('vode', method='bdf', order=15)

One point to make clear is that, unlike Matlab's ode15s, the scipy integrator 'vode' does not support models with a mass matrix. So any recommendation should include this caveat.
