Minky, my newly adopted ferret who was abused, is still pooping on a shelf in her cage. Nothing has worked--in the bigger cage she pooped on the food shelf and also on a shelf where I put some bedding. She is very good outside of the cage; now almost always poops on the paper. Is there something either appealing or noxious I can put on that shelf so she'll go all the way down to the litter box? It isn't that far down, as they are now in Angel Rocky's small cage. I don't think it's a protest poop as she did it yesterday even when she went in the cage on her own and the doors were open. Why is she doing this? Klondike is pretty good in this respect, but he insists on pooping in a corner just in front of a closet door in a hallway. I'd put a paper there but it's an awkward spot. Yesterday I didn't see that he had pooped there and put my umbrella down. Didn't notice it until later. Yuck! May have to throw it out, as it's in the velcro. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Dooks! Shron, Minky & Klondike Missing Angel Rocky (wish he could come back and show these two how and where to poop!) [Posted in FML 6397]
