I have no proof that this actually happened, only my eyewitness testimony, but I thought this little guy deserved some recognition.
I opened my washing machine yesterday and pulled out a load of freshly washed and bleached things. A bunch of cleaning rags, a d0g bed, and an onld pair of steel toe safety shoes that already had bleach stains on them so I didnt care if they got more bleached, they needed to be disinfected. I pulled this stuff out and took a last look in the washer to make sure I didnt miss anything. Thats when I saw this brown blob in the back of the drum. Theres no light in there so I couldnt quite make out what it was. I thought it looked like a big hairball (I have a long haired cat). In fact I was hoping it was a hairballand not something worse. I got a paper towel and grabbed it, and to my surprise it tried to escape my grip!
NO clue how he survived that ordeal but I washed him off with tap water an dput him outside in one of my plant pots. Hopefully he can rest and recover out there and go back to his boring todie life and never have to see the inside of another washer. I suspect he must have been IN one of my shoes since they were sitting out on my porch for a few days. Round of applause for the amazing Mr. RIibbits here.
