ح حَدَّثَنَا مُسَدَّدٌ حَدَّثَنَا الْمُعْتَمِرُ يَعْنِي ابْنَ سُلَيْمَانَ ح و حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ جَمِيعًا عَنْ أَيُّوبَ عَنْ مُحَمَّدٍ عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ بِمَعْنَاهُ وَلَمْ يَرْفَعَاهُ وَزَادَ وَإِذَا وَلَغَ الْهِرُّ غُسِلَ مَرَّةً
سنن ابودوٗد · Hadith 72
A similar tradition has been transmitted by Abu Hurairah through a different chain of narrators. But this version has been narrated as a statement of Abu Hurairah himself and not attributed to the Prophet ﷺ. The version has the addition of the words: "If the cat licks (a utensil), it should be washed once. "
