Someone recently asked me about ferrets and Christmas trees. I'm getting a table top tree this year because I have 9 ferrets and I don't want to temp them. I'm sure they would think a tree with shiny ornaments would be a great toy. The question is: would the pine pitch from a real tree be harmful to ferrets? Or the needles for that matter? Does anyone out there know about this? [Posted in FML issue 1024]
