The Cage Is Two Totes With A PVC Pipe Connecting Them. The Top Of The PVC Pipe Is Blocked Off. I Have Blocked Off The House In Fear She Was Going Under It Yet She Still Got Out. I Have Attached Pictures Of Both Totes. Has Anyone Else Had Similar Problems?

 
Hmm... pics aren't showing up for me :(

A couple thoughts without seeing pics:
- perhaps she's able to nudge the pvc pipe in such a way that leaves a gap between the tube and the totes. You could get something like this http://www.acehardware.com/product/index.jsp?productId=1276796 to ensure there aren't gaps between the two and that she can't re-position things as she pleases. I used a similar product when I had to create a nebulizer box for Satin and Texie (ie, a plastic bin divided in two down the center) - the product held the center wall in place so they couldn't get at each other.
- she's a climber and getting out over the tote walls - either by stretching far, hooking her little front paws on the edge and pulling herself up or by moving things in her cage and climbing on them to get out.
