This is Toilet Bat, a soggy wee thing that was found in a Toronto man's bathroom. Thankfully for all of us, the toilet-owner documented the entire rescue procedure.

Bats are cute, okay? They're like little goth mice. Points lost for being in a toilet, however.

The man who found it? His life has probably been changed forever. The rest of us are okay, though.
