Killed my ferret in the dishwasher.

I have 2 playful ferrets that we let roam for a few hours a night. While I was cleaning the kitchen my youngest one crawled in and I did not know it and I ran the dishwasher. I could not find him that night and figured he would turn up in the morning.

The next day the kids unloaded the dishwasher and found him. I feel like a horrible person and take full responsibility.

I will always be more cautious in the future to protect my babies.
