A pet ferret has made a "miraculous" recovery after accidentally spending a full cycle in a washing machine.
Bandit was given a 1% chance of survival by vets after going through a 100-minute wash when he sneaked into his owners' machine in Leeds.
The two-year-old ferret suffered a collapsed lung and bruising in the incident.
Veterinary surgeon David Massey said Bandit was in a "pretty bad way when he came in".
