I’ve patted her and apologised, explained how I had waited a while to try and avoid doing that, but the longer she went without the worse she would have felt… but I knew it was traumatic and I’d try to avoid doing that again. She seems to have settled.

Hm idk I still think the way you did it was better than pulling her out, but also you know her better than I do, so maybe if shes in there again you can pull her out and see which reaction indicates less stress.
You are doing great, don’t doubt yourself. 💜

I would have lured her out with food but she was entrenched and hasn’t been big on wet food (and only mildly enthusiastic with treats)
