I don't think it's so horrible to put her in another room where her crying may be a little less troubling, but not in the basement where you can't hear her at all. What if she was really in trouble. We put Penny in the family room for a few nights where we could still hear her, but not so shrilling. Once she comed down at their I brought the crate in my room, and she's doing great.
