In the dirt you didn't find a lot of oddities, it was mostly the same bits and bobs here and there. Maybe a grub, some loose pebbles, occasionally a scrap of two-leg rubbish but mostly it was all dirt. Different kinds of dirt: crumbly dirty, thick dirt, muddy and wet dirt, dirt the color of fire, dirt smooth as sand, dirt like clay, dirt so fine it seemed to almost become a mist as you tore into it. Maybe some of it had special names like clay or sediment or grit and gravel, but it was all just dirt in the end. Violetwisp came across shiny shards of old glass on occasion, clear little green gem-like trinkets good for nothing than looking nice, he had found torn fibers and crumpled metal cans crushed so thoroughly they were sharp discs. Once he had found an entire cat-shaped lump of soft cotton and fabric, an odd thing that had taken some shaking about to finally identify as the toys two-leg kits would often tote about when he spotted them by the horseplace.
Today though, today he had found something a little different and it was currently blocking his excavation.
"What is this..." Mismatched white paws tore at it, felt it shred a bit under his attempts and as he worked around it to dig it out he gradually noticed it was a lot bigger than he had realized. The tiny black cat scoffed, choking up the dust from his efforts before clamping his teeth on a loose bit of the thing and yanking it hard. His claws scratched the ground, his entire body went into leaning back to pull as hard as he could and after a lot of struggling it popped out and sent him rolling back awkwardly into the more narrow section of the tunnel where he had to fight to twist back upright proper.
The odd new thing seemed to be full of something else so he dragged the lumpen bag out backwards, his hindend poking from the tunnel exit as he shifted up and back to continue dragging it until both he and the oddity were in the open. Violetwisp gave it a poke, felt something hard at the center and after a lot of snuffling about he found an opening to reach inside and get his teeth onto a hard metal thing and withdraw it. He dropped it in alarm as it caught the light and shone brightly, inching backwards to look at a more careful distance. It looked like a claw, a big loose claw with dark vines wrapped around the end. It was oddly jagged though and the lingering scent of stale blood clung to it. He had no idea what this thing was but...
"Hey...hey, I found a weird thing! Someone else come look..." This had to be some weird two-leg thing.
