i don't know what to do, i discovered last night that my female checkered is gone. i have no clue how she escaped. she's a big girl, over 3 feet long and quite "hefty", so i can't imagine that she could have just disappeared. the only way would have been to lift the cage lid and squeeze through, but everything looks totally undisturbed. i want her back ! what to do, what to do....i thought about trying to lure her from wherever she's hiding but wouldn't i need to have some basic knowledge of where that is? i mean, she could be in a different room by now by crawling under the doors, she could have gotten into one of the floorvents, or, worst case scenario, the cats could have found her. i don't really think that the cats got to her because there is no "evidence of a struggle", so i'm still harboring hope that she's alive and well and that i'll get her back, i just have to figure out how to go about that.
