Jumping leo!!!

Hello,

Heres a little story that just happened 5 mins ago.

I went to feed my female leo (Whippet) but she only wanted to come out of her tank, so I left the top off and went to feed my male (Orion). She has a hide that must be 4-5 inches high and likes to climb on it and try to get out of her tank but never comes close! So when she climbed I didnt worry too much but I told myself that I would take it out when I was finished with Orion. I decided to take a look at her and what she was doing when I saw here JUMP!!! about 4-5 inches diagonally and barely cling to the edge of her tank. So I immediatly droped the super worms and ran to her tank to help her get out and I put her back into her tank.
I was sure I would have a heart attack!!! I happened soo fast that I didn't have the time to realize what she had just done!!
Now she is safely back in her tank and I replaced that hide for another one that is less high.
If she would have fell out she would have fallen 5 feet to what would have probably been her death. If she would have fell in her tank she would have probably fallen on her tail and lost it. So I think I got lucky on that one!

cya!

P.S. shes in a 15 gallon tank (24X12X12)inches (the last # being the height)
