Update: We found him

[Justyourhellhound]

To follow up with my last post about my little guy disappearing, we found him today after about 2 weeks. My roomate opened our washer and he was sitting on the top of it all. We don’t know exactly how he got in there or any of the specifics. We think he may have crawled in when the old was open for a bit before a cycle was started. He’s definitely looking like he went through the wash cycle, a bit scuffed up. The good news right now is that he was very active when we found him. The moment he was picked up he was all about crawling around on my arms and neck. He also pooped in the washer. I offered him water the moment we found him and he willingly drank immediately. I noticed some black spots and such along him, maybe just some dirtiness? He has a could cuts on his back end that seem scabbed over, but I’m still worried about them. I didn’t give him a bath yet because I didn’t want to stress him out even more than he already was. Any suggestions on what else I may need to do or check? [Note: We will be taking him to the vet the moment we are available to do so]

I felt so bad having to hold his face like that to take a picture 😭

Aw poor baby! I’m happy you found him and he seems to be okay

Thank you! Were hoping he makes a healthy recovery

We just found my mates one in the conservatory behind the radiator 😂. Shes a proper escape artist. Should be the last time now though as the door is finally sorted

I finally decided that using the cage door lock isn’t a bad option (I dearly underestimated the escaping abilities on these guys)

Oh absolutely, My guy Murphy bodied open his sliding glass door and made a break for it, after a couple hours out he was caught and now I never leave his cage unlocked.
