+REP for anyone who can successfully identify this pest that keeps munching one of my plants. Hint: I'm fairly sure it is not a mite. Thanks! *Crunch*

It doesnt really look like a bug type attack at all. Definately not a mite. A cat is a good guess though maybe a rabbit if it was outside. Only possible thing as far as insect I would say is a cattapillar but the way the missing parts are clean cuts and not small serrated bites I doubt that.

Here's a pic, and look at what it's holding:
Would suspect this is your culprit, if you've ruled out the other suspects.. and also fits with why you didn't see it, if you get too close - they'll bolt up a tree and at night.. are gone from view so fast that they may be a blur.

Looks like damage from a Canadian House Hippo to me, they like their greens.

LOL!! Yep- I agree- most likely a chipmunk/squirrel... other possibility is crickets/grasshoppers- BUT: not usually this time of year... same with caterpillars/moths-- still a bit chilly out for them....
deff the hippo
