Thanks for the good tips. Also, be sure to check ALL the spaces around and under cabinets. Eos found a gap under the cabinet where she was able to crawl between the bottom of the cabinet and the wall. I watch her always, but when I saw her go in, there was no way to get her out. I had to sit and wait for her to decide to return to me, and I was really scared she would go back into the wall or something. You can never be too careful.

: Sooner or later, somebody else will learn the hard way as I did about using bathrooms as play rooms, so I will list my safeguards: rabbit wire around the bottom of the water heater & where the exhaust stack is; drains are plugged; bunny wire over the window screen if open; shampoo bottles closed; cookie sheet under the toilet seat to seal off opening below the seat; PUT THE CAGE ON THE TOILET SEAT TO REMIND ONESELF! I have a small hook on the outside of the door to alert the household that it is "occupied" by squirrels. USE THIS ROOM WITH EXTREME CARE! You cannot imagine the pain of finding your pet gliders face down in the bowl! :(
