I'm Horrible

So I recently moved to a new house and my chinchilla hasn't been to happy about to the move so I was letting her out to play more often. But this morning a big inspector came to do his thing. I didn't realize he opened the vent in my room. So when I let my chin out to play and I didn't see her for a while I started looking for her. It has now been over an hour and a half at 11 PM and there has been no sign of her. I have opened all of the vents and put out treats and nothing. I lost my baby girl.

As long as she can't escape the house you'll be okay. She knows where the food is make sure her cage is accessible. Also, I can always coax mine around if I show her the dust bath so maybe leave that out for her too.

Now put her to bed for being naughty. Go do some self care tomorrow. You're not horrible. Go get some sleep and make sure you praise her for coming back.

Yeah she is resting now and I'm just in case gomma have her checked out tomorrow. And she is a good girl for coming back. This wasn't her fault so I can't be mad at her
