I grabbed em, he was so cold, but once we warmed him up he was fine, thank God!!! I guess he looks out for kids, fools & reptiles lol

    There's some small chance he was clinging for dear life to the top of the agitator and above the water throughout the whole cycle.

    [I hope]

    Just be glad she didn't toss him in the drier....:)

    Omg!!!! How insane! I could NEVER EVER imagine finding one of my kiddos in the washing machine. Thank God he's ok for the most part.
    Definately watch for any syptoms of things to come. With the luck that little one had though you should be alright. Good god!

    Poor little guy!! He's a fighter, for sure!!

    Escaped snakes seem to go for the laundry pile a lot. My fiance's dad used to breed corn snakes and he had a mass break out one time. He told all the kids not to tell their mother and for every snake they found, he would give them $20. :rofl: Several were found curled up in laundry piles. One was found several weeks later when it crawled out of the air conditioning vent and fell from the ceiling.... onto the couch next to pregnant mom. Oops.

    One of my friends had the same thing happen! He lost his poor BP a bunch. Found him in the toilet bowl once.

    I'm so glad he's okay! That's so lucky, especially since your fiancee found him before the drier!
