    Let's not mention this to my husband...
    .... because he just tolerates the BP.

    I got up this morning, got the kids up, went downstairs, and went to use the bathroom. I see a familiar looking tail...

    In the bathroom, under the sink, behind a hair dryer is my BP, Lovey.

    Her tank was still latched shut too! I have no idea how she got out because I know dh didn't touch her and my 3 year olds couldn't have done it either.

    I have my own Houdini....

    Glad you found her! And I hope you figure out how she got out so it hopefully doesn't happen again.

    Glad you found her. They are very good at squeezing through small spaces. Maybe she was able to push up a corner enough to squeeze out?

    This would be my idea too...especially if you are using a tank with those spring-like top locks.

    Wow. That's freaky - good thing you found her so quickly! Maybe she can teleport! Er... no, probably the 'pushing one corner up' thing. ;)

    I investigated the top of the tank, and it looks like there is a teeny spot in one corner that she must have squeezed out through. I'm going to have to patch it with something.

    Odd thing... I didn't even know she was missing!

    Consider yourself lucky I noticed my first escapee at 7:30am before going to work one day. Quite the morning that was...:O

    I know. I can only imagine the utter panic that would have ensued if I had noticed she was gone. I think the bathroom would have been the last place I checked. My guess is that I used the hairdryer and it was still warm when she was drawn to it.
