ideas to restore the fur?
Thanks,

For what it is worth, Soaking the fur in a diluted hair conditioner
for a couple of days saved some the fur I would have otherwise tossed
out.

Wait a minute, here. Susan Thornberg is replying to Guy Thornberg on
the nearly defunct roff?

Have you ever considered talking, or even leaving a note on the
refrigerator?
