Has anyone had anything similar to the following happen? There are two 'adventures' that nearly made me have a heart attack.
1) My sister went outside to hang out the washing. She was outside for 5-10 minutes. After returning she said "Bonnie had an adventure!". My reply was: "What, did she end up in the washing machine?". No! Bonnie had been sitting on my sister's shoulder the entire time outside and didn't make a sound until returning to the house via the back door. 
2) I was sorting through my clean washing and picked up a pair of jeans...a friggin' HUGE whitetail spider was sitting on them! Panic stations - I ran outside and frantically shook and beat them on the ground...completely forgetting that Bonnie was sitting on my shoulder the whole time. Again, she didn't move or make a sound until we were going back inside (a token 'RAAAAT').
OMG!!!
Actually, I'm kind of amazed she was so calm about both occasions.
. We have had a few cases where a wide open door to the outside was left open right in front of Cupcake and she did not take the opportunity to fly out... But never actually gone outside with her thankfully. Phew! I am glad they ended well for you! I have so many nightmares, both waking and while asleep, about Cupcake flying away.
