[QUOTE="Jess S, post: 162326, member: 29302"] I'm so sorry. Good job you resealed the enclosure because it's worth double checking as it's possible to miss them - they can scrunch themselves up so small and hide in the substrate. As you say she could be anywhere. She could even have already been eaten by a house spider. All you can do is keep looking everywhere, and look out for webbing. She is more likely to hide and come out at night. If I was you, I wouldn't let the cats have free run of the house at night, in case they come across her during her wanderings. Cats have great night vision. I've been told that tarantulas can't see red light. Buy a red torch bulb (or put red cellophane over a torch) so that you can look out for her in the dark. Really hope you find her as it's horrible to have that worry in the back of your mind [/QUOTE]
