I really belive your safe, they have been exposed to air to long to carry any diseases. I don't know of many diseases that can live that long outside.
You could always take a slightly damp cloth with just a little bleach and water and rub them down some, just to be safe.
I can see how your girls could be interested in them, hanging down like that. If I was a cat, I'd want to play with it. lol It really is some neat looking items.
I dont thinkthat there is ant\y danger,as I buy things from Bali,and Japan,and The Cats all love to smell the Sandalwood!
Well, I put it to another place now, one they hopefully cannot reach so easily - just to be on the safe side! :)

I don't think there's anything to worry about Kirsten.
My friend and her hubby lived in Mozambique for a year (in fact her hubby was there for four years in total).
They bought lots and lots of souvenirs home and the whole house is filled with various artefacts. Their cats haven't been troubled at all with any disease.
In fact Steve (her hubby) brought his cat home with him - yes she had to go into quarrantine first - but boy has she settled in with her one sister and four brothers!! Her name is Nala - she's a real African kitty!! And gorgeous with it!
I just hope your gorgeous twosome aren't troubled with anything.

Thanks, Lynne! Good to hear about the experiences others have made with these things! :)
Nala - what a sweet name for an African kitty! My sister and her bf met two kitties at a farm in Namibia, they say they were so cute and loving. Funny thing is, at the same time they've been there, I saw an article in one of my cat magazines about that farm and there was a picture of one of the cats, I thought that was pretty cool! :)
