Nancy: my commiserations. One of my cats did that once. I got home from work and found my pillow with spangled bobbins upside down on the floor, 2 broken bobbins. One was my only bone one. Time elapsed from the disaster meant both cats were puzzled about why I was yelling and waving my arms around. Looking innocent. It took me 2 hours to untangle the mess and make knots in the 3 broken threads. Then I had a guy I met at a craft show build me a pillow cupboard large enough to hold them all safe from the cats. But with ferrets, you might need a pillow cupboard with a combination lock on it to keep everything safe overnight. The cupboard hasn't entirely solved my problem, because when I open it my cat makes a beeline for it and sneaks into a crevice between 2 pillows on one of the low shelves, looking all snug and happy. Then I have to fight with him and try to drag him out. I get him out and reach for the pillow I had to move to reach him. There is something soft and squishy at the back of the shelf. While I was reaching for the pillow he snuck back into the cupboard. At this point I start yelling with frustration. He usually gets the message that retreat is the better part of valor. Every time I open it I have to calculate where the cat is and how long it will take him to dash into it. I've sort of exchanged one problem for another. The whole time I'm trying to move faster than the cat I'm laughing because it is nearly impossible. Lorelei
