Hi, sorry to hear that - I do hope you find her.

It's been said before, but worth saying again - if you haven't done so already, go over the viv with a fine toothcomb ... it's amazing where they can curl up. The amount of times I've been certain I've lost one and she's been tucked away somewhere in the viv that I'd never have credited she could get to ...

All the very best - fingers crossed for her safe and speedy return!

I hope you find her soon. Maybe a lock for the viv to stop itchy fingered sisters from opening the viv.

My commiserations - I found that when I tried to fit locks! How do people get them sorted out? (Apparently you have to straighten them with a vice but I still can't see what to do with the dratted things ... grr!)

Hope Bugatti turns up soon! All the best.

If the vivs are Vivexotic ones, the Pro-Rep viv locks work brilliantly.

I hope Bugatti is found safe and well.

Good luck searching.

Best wishes

That's great that you found her! Poor old hamster - if it was dying it might not have noticed Bugatti. They only live a couple of years, I think.

As for cage locks - I'm going to stick to tape, personally (there's only me and the cats.) Thanks, Ryanred for the tip, though - the viv I tried first is a vivexotic, but the lock wasn't the right one obviously ...grr!
