I once found a shop towel under my carpet, no pics though. I've found countless spiders.

Nothing animal wise... but working on my beater truck I found a few wrenches and a few spark plugs tucked in tight spots that nobody every bothered to remove.

I bought a '83 Capri to use for a motor transplant. Gutted the interior and found they used cut lamp cords for power wires to run to an amp and it smelled as if the moonshine still was spilled in the floorboard as it reaked of alcohol and was quite wet.

i had a dead mouse in my blower motor. i bought the car off a used car lot where it sat in the back forever. i turned on the fan after buying it and this nasty smell came out from the vents and it sounded like there was pine straw in the blower motor. when i took everything out for the rhd conversion, i saw the little guy sitting in there w/ blood all spattered about. he was stiff as a rock.
