Hi, My mother is leaving town and has graciously decided to give me a gorgeous futon she had designed a few years ago. I readily accepted but suddenly remembered that a few months or so ago, someone mentioned a problem they had with ferrets and futons. I recall someone describing how to 'fix' the futon so that ferrets wouldn't be hurt. Is this true or am I recalling some other piece of furniture ( I know recliners are a NONO ). If there are problems for ferrets and futons I would like to know immediately as she is moving within the week and could otherwise sell the futon. If anyone has had any problems please email directly at [log in to unmask] Thanks, Michaela Maurice [Posted in FML issue 1728]
