We are visiting my parents:
My dad had Noodles with him in the kitchen and I have told him 7 million times to never use the oven while she is in the kitchen on him/ in the kitchen in general.
So, of course, he opens the oven with her on his shoulder ( no injury) BUT, then I walk in and smell burning rubber---I immediatly took her out of the room and placed her as far away as I could (and put up an off-the-hinges door that I used to block off the kitchen at night due to noise etc)---
I was told that it was "just the oven smell" and I was told "DON'T OPEN IT" whenever I tried. I insisted that this was NOT just an oven smell.
After about 5-10 minutes of yelling and asking for the oven to be opened, my dad finally gave in and there was an effing rubber JAR OPENER on the coils!
OMFG---- Then, my dad threw it to get rid of it and accidentally hit me with the molten plastic. I am freaking out.
We have the windows open and we are blowing the air out with fans (and in where noodles is, but out throughout the rest of the house) but WTF.... I know it was an accident, but I am so scared and pissed.
I took her outside in her travel cage, but she got super scared because she isn't used to being outside at my parents' and so I brought her back in. She is in a small solarium-type room (probably 8x 10 ft) with a box fan blowing in---she is eating things and acting normal but I am so worried....The rest of the house has fans blowing out/doors open and this "wing" is blocked off (but it is semi-near the kitchen---it is kitchen, large dining room + entryway and then sun-room/solarium- but I did block off the kitchen and I also shut the door that leads to the hall and connects the living room to the rest of the home)...There are 2 doors to the living/dining area (the one that I covered with an old off-the -hinges door and another one that still has a door on it)
The oven if off now and I have no idea what to do. I got the sh*t off of my hands with olive oil, but I don't want to use oil in the oven and burn that....Oh, AND my dad tried to wipe it off with a paper-towel and that caught fire.
I am losing my mind and I am angry/scared for Noodles. AGAIN, she is acting fine, but I don't know how long until I know she is "out of the woods"!
Any thoughts on safely cleaning this?!?!
