How to stop them chewing foam mats

hmmm thought that might be the answer but if thats the case what do i do about Alberts sore feet
 
If its just a corner I tried putting down small carpet pieces on them. Or I tried soaping the edges once - kinda worked although I was worried they'd just eat the soap too...
 
What about covering them? Maybe with a blanket and tucking the ends in somehow?

Vetbed didn't help ours until I covered it with something thinner. I used an old sheet or pillowcases. I found the vetbed wore away a bit at the fur. However, ours were caused by carpet rubbing away the fur anyway. They did improve once I covered their vetbed though.
 
no idea, i tried laying mine in the hutches, cut them so they fit perfect, next day they were destroyed, i gave up.

i do however have them in the run and i have put the run over them if that makes sense?

they seem to leave them alone in the run :)
 
I covered the edges with cardboard

they lasted a good while, ive only just had to throw them out due to chewing. will have to get more if charlies poorly feet return though
 
I covered the mats with newspaper last night and they made it through the night so im off to the charity shop today to look for a sheet :D
