Oh, my! I've been through similar when Kacee was little. She would go under the recliner!!!
You name it! She has hidden there. One time I shut her in my closet and went through what you did, too! That lil girl finds hiding holes everywhere and I'm not used to it. Muffin never was one to go into hiding.
Then she started sleeping under the beds. I feel like I'm always looking for a ghost.
