Any luck ...? Ugh this is terrible

I hope you find her! When Winry got out a few months ago I found that she had wedged herself between some moving boxes and frames. When I found her she was just looking up at me casually like "what's up?".
What helped was my cat kept staring over at the boxes with his hair standing up. I figured he must have seen something unusual.

Re: My big girl escaped
When Miss Snow escaped found her in the drawer where the pots and pan goes underneath the stove. I had to move pots and pans around to see her.

Sorry to hear about the escape, hopefully you find her quickly. :( I've only had 2 escapes that were my fault in all the years I've been keeping, and both times the snakes were on opposite sides of the room from their enclosure. The ball python was under one of those old-fashioned domed TVs right smack in the middle of a cold draft, the garter was found right by the door underneath a guitar case, despite there being cold winter air coming in right on top of him from the large gap under the front door.
Just check everywhere, especially underneath and inside things. I once saw someone post a lost 6'+ boa constrictor...they found it inside their acoustic guitar! :O They can go into some crazy places.

Found her! Literally tore my house apart piece by piece 3928682 different times. Y’all weren’t joking when you said look and look again. I looked in this spot at least 5 different times. I never actually thought that she would be there because she is a big girl 2436g, right at 5.5, but kept looking because hell i didn’t know where else to look. She made it into the kitchen, into the pantry, in a box of contractors trash bags. She worked her way underneath them. When I would look, all I would see is a roll of black bags, and I thought it was just the bags that were heavy. The only reason I found her, was I happened to look down this morning by chance, and see her snout poking out behind the roll. Thank y’all for you’re advice. I was in a panic yesterday, once I got over being creeped out that she was loose and I didn’t know where, I was so worried about her getting into something and hurting herself.

Re: My big girl escaped
When my boy got out a few years back, he got in with my post and pans. Managed to get inside my tea kettle, with a lid.

So glad to hear you found her!

Excellent !!!
Oddly enough my late Grand-dad had a saying ..
Just as you are ready to give up ... Keep trying ..
It's surprising just how often following that advice had benefited me in many situations over the decades ...
