I have a very similar slide system but the underside of mine is covered with the same plastic "rodent barrier" material used under the rest of my TT. That material slides nicely over that white plastic piece in front of the slide. If you recover it make sure the material wraps around the leading edge as you can see in my picture. This will keep the RB or felt from being pulled off easily. I don't think they did this on yours.
You could remove all the felt and install rodent battier or you could cover it with something else - maybe a sheet of aluminum so it wouldnt rust.
I ended up installing rollers for my slide. This keeps the material on the bottom of the slide from slowly abrading.
I used a conveyor roller on each side rated at 1200#.
