Thanks for that story. Shame you couldn't get the puzzle done after all your efforts.
When I want to do a puzzle, I don't want all the trouble of having pieces all over the place. This is a site that I go to do puzzles sometimes online.
www.jigzone.com They have puzzles of lots of different pictures and it is free! The puzzles have 16 different configurations of amount of pieces with 246 pieces being the largest. No chance of pieces being eaten or stolen!
