My ferrets still dig in their food dish despite everything we do.
Fortunately it's clearly a sign of "Hey, I'm hungry!!" because they only do
it when the dish is empty.  One of the things we did experiment with is
changing the type of food in the dish.  The ferrets did not like their
current food and changing the food helped.  That food was everywhere....
