I have a similar story - most people with a cat will have one - of a kitten getting into the oven.

I was grilling some bacon on the top shelf in the cooker. I pulled the cooker door open to turn the bacon over, then forgot to put it back up as I turned to the counter to butter some chunky bread. I turned back round and was just about to kick the cooker door up when I saw a paw inside the cooker trying to pull the bacon off from the back of the shelf. His head was dangerously close to the element. I grabbed his tail from under the shelf and pulled him out by it. The little blighter had just managed to get hold of a piece of bacon so when I pulled him out I pulled the bacon with him.

Could so easily have had cooked cat if I hadn't spotted his paw!
