Broccoli

Saké was funny the other night with her vegetables. Normally the girls get a dish of vegetables each night, and depending on the kind of vegetables, they treat it differently. If they get a dish with peas, corns, or tomatoes, they eat it quickly and immediately. If they get broccoli, carrots, beans, or something else, they tend to nibble throughout the evening.

This time though, Saké behaved differently. I put a small dish of broccoli and carrots into the cage and Saké immediately rushed over. She grabbed as much as she could in her paws, shoved broccoli into her mouth and took off to a corner of the cage. She dropped her entire load, raced back to the dish, and loaded up again. She returned to the dish a third time, picked out a single piece of broccoli, and climbed into their nest to eat.

During this entire time, Sushi was on a different level of the cage, asleep in the hammock.
