[QUOTE="Krissim Klaw, post: 310683, member: 1492"] I'm sorry to hear things went so bad. Trips can be tough because even if you are willing to spend the money on a pet sitter it is going to be hard finding someone experienced enough to do more good than harm. For a shorter 4 day trip a lot of us would find it less risky leaving the mantises behind alone than have someone that doesn't know what they are doing poking around the cages. There is zero risk for a healthy mantis to starve in four days time. When you got communal setups and nymphs that are going to shed however things get more complicated. It sounds like you really had a string of bad luck with everything going wrong at once. As someone that has had a high prey driven cat and mantises before, you might want to look into adding a lock, because now that they got in once and had a blast they will be keen to sneak in again next time they are bored and no one is home.
