I could open and close her enclosure with no problem. I could easily remove things from her enclosure or add things. She didn't bolt at all.But now, the minute she knows the door is open, she bolts upwards. And she's a quick little thing so you can barely close the lid in time.She could just be getting into her hunting position on/near her web because she thinks there is food and not trying to escape, but the web is close to the top of the enclosure so it's hard to tell her plans. *lol*Either way, my heart goes nuts. I have no idea how to grab her water dish now as we only have a sliding door on top of the enclosure.</blockquote>
