Nail up a platform where you can grab her from, just outside the opening. Put a regular heating pad from a drugstore, wth the cover on it on low ( check it first yourself on low to be sure it doesn't overheat) on the platform. Make it sure it can't slip off with bungie cords or duct tape, so she doesn't fall. Come and look at about 4AM and she'll probably be sitting on it. This works even if she isn't hungry.

If she is hungry, and she is used to F/t even better, put a largeish f/t rodent in a container with small holes so she can smell it like a tub with a tight fitting top but with holes drilled in it. Cut a hole in the container top just big enough for her to get in but not so big if she eats the rodent she can get back out. Come back later she will be in there alright, unable to escape. You can put that heating pad under the tub too, it will make the smell more pronounced.

Good luck!
