The slave has been trained to put itself into storage when not needed. I would send it to its storage place using the command ‘slave to storage’. It would immediately stop what it was doing and head there. The slave would also politely request if it should store itself away should it feel it had completed its tasks. This would either be granted or denied. I had several places I would store the slave, such as a cage or small dark cupboard. Its default place however was an old outhouse. This was fitted with a wireless doorbell chime that I could ring to summon the slave. Occasionally there would be nothing for the slave to do other than wait. Often however, I wanted to keep the slave busy so give it a task to complete, leave some equipment in there, such as a range of urethral sounds in increasing sizes, for it to abuse itself with or gear and restraints to put on. 

The slave was kept in storage for varying amounts of time – sometimes a few hours, sometimes most of the day depending on my requirements. It was very occasionally stored overnight, though it mainly slept on the floor at the foot of my bed.
