Glad you found him!
Have you taken steps to ensure it will not happen again? Did you figure out how the doors were opened and fixed the problem?

Great news. What a horible feeling when you realise they have gone. It happened to me a while ago. I came in and the viv door was wide open. I freaked out for about a minute. Then I realised I had moved her to her feeding tub.
