Miss Hoppy is a wise bunny. If she's hungry enough to eat ALL her parsley or other greens, she then either makes such a fuss that we refill her plate, or pushes the empty plate toward the refrigerator until we silly humans get the hint.

But she usually leaves a few pieces - just as insurance, I guess. She often won't eat the last one inch of carrot until we put a new one out!

That was the only time I've seen her sleeping "guarding" her food.

For the record, Miss Hoppy would gladly give the leprechauns any and all cabbage that was in the house.
