Yesterday I let Jeep run around in the southern end of the house all day. I went to check on him and could not find him anywhere. After looking in every single big and tiny place he could have hidden I was at a loss. For sure I began to assume he got outside thru a door I opened. But I knew I was very careful about that and there was no way he could have done that. I had seen him in the computer room anyway after those doors had been opened. But still no Jeep ! I heard some scratching in the master bedroom but could not find the source of the scratching. I kept on searching in places do bizarre just to be sure but no Jeep. Then all at once the scratching happened again and it was coming from the bathroom. But no Jeep there either. Then I spotted fur. Jeep had got into the base board heat register, one about three feet long, in the bathroom that carries the forced hot water baseboard heat. He was totally trapped inside that! I could not believe he was in there! Jeep is so big but he scrunched in and got there anyway. He was hopelessly trapped in a scrunched up posture. I tried to get him to back up but he couldn't so I had to rip the whole cover off the wall to get him out. He was happy to get out and ran to his 'spot' to give me a tootsie roll. Seems that need was all that prompted him to scratch to get out. Typical guy priorities for sure. So today I have to reassemble all that and then look at all the others in the house to be sure none can be opened enough for him to get into. If I had not searched so much and so long I never would have found him till only a fuzzy skeleton would have been found years later. Gordon and Jeep Aarrow-Ranch Aviation J.
