One day, my wife had opened the dryer, removed a piece of clothing, and left it open. I saw it later, closed the dryer, reran it and walked off.

I heard a thump, which caused me to pause for a few seconds. I heard a very faint, distressed meow a few seconds later, just as I was walking off.

If I had walked away any faster I’d have lost a kitty.

With a cat at home you need to be sure what is inside of the washing machine when closing it.

Yeah, I wonder why it could be.

Yep, learned that the hard way.

That sounds way worse than your previous story.

Same story: I wasn’t going to mince words over washer vs. dryer. Only mishap was with the dryer.
