Hi. I'm new to the FML and got my first edition this morning Australian time. Yes, I am writing from Australia. I've had my little Erik for about 4 months now. I wouldn't swap him for the world. My problem is my Brother was kindly cleaning out Erik's cage yesterday and forgot to secure the "Beast" well before hand. I returned from work to find the cage EMPTY!!! He has now been out over night. Does any one have any ideas to how to find him or intice him back. He has "escaped" once before and didn't go far. He was found by my cat( don't panic they get on so amzingly well! It's great!!). I've tried to get the cat to sniff him out but you know what cat's are like. Any way if anyone has any clues please let me know, I miss him!! Monique & Erik( the Absent). [Posted in FML issue 1522]
