So I have a very ill, very elderly ferret who lives in a large playpen with no top. My young 1 yr old cat is obsessed with the ferrets food and will get in there and eat it all. It was just annoying but now that the ferret can't eat whole pieces of food I spend hours cutting each piece up individually. It's extremely tedious and time consuming. But I do it bc she chokes on who,e pieces and won't eat any other foods. Any of you have ideas on what I can cover the top of the cage with that can easily be peeled back for my access for daily playtime and to cleaning etc? Or maybe a way of having the food out for the ferret but the cat can't access?
I've tried a tarp, cat just gets in the middle and weights it down until it caves in. I also can't put the food up bc the ferret needs constant access and I'm not moving the ferret away from the family room. I'm getting so upset. It's every day and I'm losing so much food I spent work on cutting up. I take the cat with me and lock her in another room when I leave the family room but sometimes I forget or get caught up with something.
Below is a pic of the play pen. Excuse the poo, need to change the pad out lol
