So there I was, walking back to my room with a cheese sammich thinking everything was as it should be... when suddenly Nala came out from between the couch and the playpen, hopping along like she owned the house!!
I can't for the life of me figure out how she could get out - the walls of the pen consist of the condo, two 4' high playpens and a couple stretches of "filler" made from NIC grids (three grids high). I was SURE their area was escape proof with the new 4' tall pens!... but oh, how wrong I was.
I tried to lure her in with raisins, but she wasn't having it. she ran under the piano and ran me in circles, then went between the pen/condo and the built-in entertainment center where she knows I can't fit, then into the kitchen, then back between the pen and the built-in, then way back over by the couch, then back under the piano and then she paused just long enough while sitting on the carrier for me to nab her. worst part is halfway through the chase, I realized that my sammich had fallen on the floor!
excuse the obvious clutter... I live alone and never have people over and my house reflects that >.<
here's pics going around the entire pen in the exact condition it was in when she escaped:
the door to the pen, which I *always* double-check to make sure all three latches are hooked shut:
(nothing on the TV tray was disturbed, and the camera had been sitting upright on it until I started snapping pics, so there's no way she could've gotten on that)
fwiw, the upper floors of the condo are closed off right now. also, there's no way she got out under something because even I can't lift the pen more than like a quarter inch off the floor... and every place where things are ziptied together are secured with multiple ties the whole vertical length of the connection.
anyone have a clue how she got out??
