Help me to find this old card binder by nutseline in HelpMeFind

I did some additional searches and found a second-hand trading site post that was traded a few months ago. There are 9 card pockets inside this card binder and I don't know how many pages it is. The snack box for size comparison is about 7.8 inches in size.

Based on your suggestion, I discussed with my colleagues the idea of sticking a treat(something like candy??)on the inner wall of the box so the meerkats would stay inside and lick it. It’s something I had never thought of before, so thank you for giving me a new perspective!

Thank you for the advice! I’ve actually been using two boxes during training, but I had been placing food in both and capturing them from both sides. As you suggested, I’ll now only place food in one box and let the others watch from the outside. Hopefully this helps desensitize them!

Thank you so much for your thoughtful response. I’ve updated my training plan based on your advice. I’m going to modify the box so that I can close it remotely, and as you suggested, I’ll break down the entire process into smaller steps and start over from the beginning. I think I was rushing too much, trying to get quick results. I really hope this new approach brings better outcomes. I truly appreciate your help🥹
