The Magic Food Bowl

Anyone else have one of these around there house? I'm not sure what makes it so special, but it most certainly must be magical. It attracts ferrets like no other food dish in the house, well except maybe the soupie dishes.

It is a small bowl that sits out in the ferret room in addition to the two regular crocks that the ferrets have available to them in their cage which they have access to at all times. The magic food bowl is the only one to go empty, and it usually happens within minutes of it being filled. There is nothing special about the food it contains, same stuff as in the other bowls.

When I let the ferrets out each morning, I also replace the food and water in their FN cage. Why then do I have ferrets hovering around the magic food bowl giving me a look that says "Mommy if you don't fill my food bowl soon I'm gonna starve!"?
