| Help! |
The last cabinet to get installed in our new kitchen is a wine rack and liquor cabinet type-thing. The way the designer figured out how to do this was to insert it into the wall in the corner where we just knocked down the wall dividing the kitchen and the living room. When we cut into the wall we found some mold so we had to cut the hole a bit bigger so Cathe could get in there and scrub the wall down and repaint it.

| The mold! |
We were worried about someone getting in the hole in the wall during construction so we covered it with paper and some painter's tape. This wasn't a problem. Then we got our counter top installed on Friday and this apparently gave Pork Chop the height she needed to get in the hole. So while we were watching a movie Saturday night we heard a strange noise. 20-30 minutes later we noticed Pork Chop was missing.

What followed was an entertaining yet stressful 40 minutes of trying to figure out how to get her out the wall. This included using scrap cardboard, our ironing board (Cathe's idea), and a reusable shopping bag rigged up with belts (my idea). What eventually worked was sticking a step ladder down in the hole and putting some treats just outside the hole so she could climb out.

Now the hole is covered up super-secure so no one can get in there again.
