LOL - Maggie's mom, I have three of those deaf people here. I think a newspaper works as well as a hearing aide, probably wouldn't make anyone move, but would be more fun for me.
We got a cage, it folds to be 2x2x2, opens to be 4x4, 2' high. I didn't allow the babies to be out unless someone was with them. They had food, water, bed, pee pee pad. They were to be brought outside immediately upon release. I kept a little rug under their food, sometimes they would pee on that. They are only $4 at Walmart, and now I leave an extra in the cage instead of pee pee pad. They don't have a lot of accidents, but these are very washable and look nicer )not chewable. For a time, Zowie would come out of the cage and pee by the back door, so I had to carry her outside. I am ready to make them a doorbell now.
Patience and persistance is the key
