THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! I haven’t been able to find anything online, I really appreciate it. Since it’s near their food I’m thinking of just putting a back board behind it. Thanks again

Do they flick their food about? That may be why. Or have they trained you to react when they do it?

Just make sure you put some drywall compound and paint to seal up the exposed drywall core before you put the wood paneling down(not a bad idea btw...). It doesn't have to loom pretty. Otherwise you're likely to get mold, moisture and maybe swelling. Latex paint does a lot to ensure the longevity of the drywall in your home.
