Hi Hawk ~
 
Yes I was surprised to find when I went to see my friend who had fuzzies,
his little ones would walk right over the candle.  Fur would burn, we
would freak, and put the candles out for the duration of my visit.  The
fuzzies gave no indication of being hurt at all.  I even made up a
calendula burn cream, but we didn't need it.  Now I have candles here,
but they are above where my little critters seem inclined to climb.
Still I never leave the office with candles burning, or fuzzies loose.  I
guess with Christmas coming, and candle season we should all be careful.
 
Warmly ~
Mary
