I try to have her be useful and eat the grass around the housing areas, to keep it trimmed but... she eats what she eats.

[like rolling corks, for example]

Luckily she knows to stop if I call her off, but she will happily eat anything she thinks she might like. She also seems to have learned that she can beg for table scraps.

I don't want to encourage it, by any means, but it is still quite sweet when it happens...
