I had the same problem. I am at school from 9 til about 1 or so during the week and for awhile Mandie would cry when we put her in the cage ("jail") in my room. I just felt that the cage was too tiny for her to be in for that long of a time, so I bought gates and put them up around the kitchen so there was more room for her to play. Loaded up the kitchen with her toys, left hard food and water down.. And that seemed to help, she whines for a little while when I first leave, but then after that she finds herself a toy to play with...Definately get the kong, mandie could spend a whole day just playing with that thing.....
