Try mixing some of the new litter into the old litter and gradually
increasing the new stuff until that's all that's in there. Another thing
that seems to help is use a spray bottle of water and lightly spray the
top of the litter. I happened to spray my ferret as she was digging,
too, and that seemed to do more good than any of the techniques! :) (she
doesn't like water)
