Sorry, but the only white fur at my house is on the cats (tummies, mostly),
and they kind of take care of the cleaning bits on their own, and in fact,
actually resent any "help" I might offer. ;o)
Come to think of it, outside of a persian lamb coat I inherited from my
grandmother, the only fur in the house at all is on the four-legged
roommates.
Obligatory Costume Content: They're always willing to critique what I'm
making, but they are not the sort that would be at all tolerant of having
new costumes made for them. ;o)

white mink fur coat and I'd like to clean it before I cut it up :)  I'd
really rather not spend much more money on this project.  Any ideas?
