Stroppy ferret

[Lazy-Ferret]

I am having a problem with Kit the ferret climbing over the gate that keeps him from arguing with the second group of ferrets that live over the other side.

With out going into a tonne of extra info, the gate can not be just a case of a bit of wood, and it needs to be high enough to stop the ferrets jumping it, but low enough for us to be able to step over it.

Ferret Proofing is actually an impossible concept, basically, it is a case of finding a way of temporarily outwitting them until they learn how to get round your latest efforts.

The current gate has worked for several months, but Kit finally found a weakness in the design. The other night, I decided to try a proof of concept by attaching a bit of perspex I had left over from a Clipframe that arrived broken to the gate with some tape and see what the results would be... The perspex still had the protective cover on...

As you can see, Kit took this very personally....
