When I was just a lad I had a retic go missing for weeks. Mom was so happy when he turned up in her closet one morning. Yikes!

Best of luck finding Alice. BTW, a male named Alice, anything to do with "The Coop"?
Oddly enough, I just got done plugging in a heating pad on the floor after making yet another sweep of the area before reading your post.

A tank he used to live in, his matching hides and water bowl are in it with the currently thawing mouse.

We have mice galore running through the walls and I'm afraid he's going to be smelling them instead even though he doesn't eat live.
[even 'too wiggly' F/T freaks him out]

Yes, he's named after The Coop.

As a long time [35+ years] fan, this makes my loss doubly painful.
