Yes, it is a cat's natural hunting instinct to move to eat something in a secluded space. They do this in the wild to avoid other predators that might want to eat them or their prey.
Get a new cat. And maybe a new dryer unless you want to have it professionally cleaned. Also, get some counseling about killing animals.

Your cat does get reluctant when you want to leave because it is fond of you.
The best idea is to leave the cat there until the cat comes out.
