I don't know if the room she was in is carpeted or what but since my girl excaped in the kitchen (lots of places to hide in there...) I sprinkled flour on the floor so I could see if she came out. It didn't actually work (that was last night) but I don't even know if she is in the kitchen. It's an idea that has the potential to work I thinkI think I'm going to do it again just around the edges of the room..... It isn't too hard to clean up either. ( my mom would KILL me if I just left it like I wanted to haha)
