So I came home yesterday, after an early evening walk, and went to transfer the new cochins back to their dog crate to put in the garage for the night. (I found a 4 sided dog kennel on clearance at Petsmart, and ziptied some shade cloth to the top, this is where Marsha & Millie spend the day while in quarantine.) But I almost had heart attack - Millie was missing!
I searched high & low, flashlight in hand, calling her name. Thought I heard a peep every now and then, but couldn't be sure. I checked every flower pot, pile of leaves, low shrubs, every nook & cranny of the lower yard. I even looked up in the trees thinking maybe she was roosting up there. I was not going to give up until I found her, she had to be somewhere!
Then "peep peep" about a foot away, there she was just sitting in the lime tree looking happy as a clam. Whew! Today I'll have to add a few more zip ties to the pen, she must've got out that way, didn't look like she dug under. Silly Millie!
