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.

[Blu Mongoose]

So glad you found her!!!

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.

[NightLad]

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

[Kiramay]

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...

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.
