It was about three AM this morning; my boyfriend and I were fast asleep. All of a sudden, a crashing sound is heard; breaking glass. My boyfriend jumps outta bed and yells "WHOS HERE?" He was about to grab for the shotgun!
Well, we turn on the lights and go in the living room. I have a curio cabinet that has (or HAD, lol) a nice lamp with a pretty glass lampshade thing on it. It was lying on the floor, being slithered on by Ringer our rescue-case male.
How he got out is anyone's guess. I have him in one of those big "under the bed" type rubbermaids, and had the lid duct-taped in the center part, since the container's fasteners are just on either side, not in the center. Somehow he managed to snap the tape and slither out.
I am only thankful that he did not encounter our cat on his rendezvous. I have since put a very heavy item (my boyfriend's autoclave, used to clean tattoo needles) on the lid for the time being to weigh it down.. Yikes, what a fitful night/
