Dave,

Paper Towels. ;-) Seriously though, sometimes its easier to "join them than
fight them". Our ferrets have a room to themselves and they use paper
towels rather than a litter box. It a small room, they have paper towel
inside their cage, one in the corner right outside the cage, and the other 3
corners have paper towel in them. All spots are regularly used. It would
be nice if there was just one or two places to clean up, but if I don't put
the towel down where they choose to go, I will be fighting a constant losing
battle. Outside their room (which they have access to only when we're home)
there is two spots with paper towel down. They're "pretty" accurate out
there. There's 2 spots where they frequently make their "mistakes". But
both of these spots are not good official paper towel spots because its
right by the front door. :-)
