Fruity Freddy, so I've name it, because it's a fruit tree and I already named him Freddy for some reason.
I scared him off for two days when I last watered the plant and felt horrible. I kept telling my friends that I was worried a bird got him or he left forever and was sad.
Then he appeared out of nowhere and went back to his routine of destroying my plant. I felt a little relieved. I'm still going to yell at him to finish a leaf once he starts, even if he doesn't listen.
I won't rehome him as long as he doesn't eat so much that it kills my plant. TBD but in the meantime I'm glad my little friend is back.
