    Re: missing checkered

    that's what i'll do, although it won't be easy, not a patient person by nature.

    I'd make myself comfortable by that entertainment center, equipped with sufficient reading materials, puzzles, snacks (no noisy snacks) and beverages . . . .
    it's a bit like a siege

    Re: missing checkered

    i got her! it wasn't by waiting, i just didn't think i could pull that off. we emptied the entertainment center and moved it away from the wall, then i chased her out from under it and grabbed her. not the most gracefull way to do things but very effective. i'm happy to have her back, now i need to look in to makeing the tank escape-proof.
    thanks for everybodys support
