Marla,
 
Important question.  I want to make sure I know exactly what type of
bedding you're warning us about.  Is this the tube-type, enclosed,
hammocks that are long and round, and maybe six inches wide or so?  some
of these type hammocks also have a hole in the middle for the ferret to
stick its head out, but it could get stuck the wrong way, I'm sure.
 
Like I said, I just want to make sure I avoid the type of bedding that
caused this accident!
 
Thanks,
