Under Astronaut, again had me rolling on the floor:

Thagard also had the distinction of being the first
person ever to clean out animal cages in orbit, on
the Spacelab 3 in 1985. Engineers promised him that
the cages would be at negative pressure, so none of
the weightless waste of 24 rats and 2 squirrel monkeys
would escape.

But when Thagard opened the cages, air rushed outward,
leading to a frantic floating-feces chase scene. A day later,
at the other end of the craft, commander Bob Overmeyer was
accosted by a truant turd.
