Block off BEHIND the dryer

When we first got our ferret, Spaz, we of course checked for holes and what not and it seemed that he could not get out anywhere. We were VERY wrong!

It was winter, and I had gone over to my in laws house down the street to pick something up, *snowing outside* and I came back and Spaz was missing. Searching frantically, I couldn't find him for hours! My husband came home and he opens the door with Spaz shivering in his arms and he's trying to understand why the ferret was playing in the snow!

It turns out he had gotten BEHIND the dryer, chewed up the duct that leads from the dryer out of the house, and slipped out the vent! Needless to say, we put some heavy tape over that duct to keep him from doing it again!
