The main reason was that the roasted rabbit meat it had eaten earlier was just too fragrant and delicious; even if it could eat it for ten thousand years, the Stingy Mouse wouldn't be willing to leave.
Only by following Wesley could it get anything to eat; even if it was just licking the bones left over by Wesley, it was still fragrant!
By now, the Stingy Mouse had completely forgotten that it was still a Golden-Haired Rat King, and it had lost all interest in the various nuts it used to love eating.
