I’m so glad that there are sooo many pet safe plant options that are absolutely gorgeous. I was worried I wouldn’t be able to have many options but there really is a lot!
I have the Chinese money plant in my room. My cats keep nibbling on it. I’m glad to know it’s non toxic!
I liked chinese money plan, purple passion, watermelon peperomia, pearl plant, moth orchid and peacock plant the most. I will start with any one of these and see how my 7 cats including kittens react to it. Thank you for the video.
Nice upload friend 👍 stay blessed ❤️ and greetings from India 🙏
What a beautiful video! I am gonna try a few including the Chinese money plant and the Swedish ivy!!!
This is so cool. ☺Thank you so much for sharing!👍🏻💕🔔
Thank you! Informative video!
I have African violets, moth and miltonia orchids, button ferns, money trees, hen and chick succulents, ponytail palm, spider plants, catnip . On the patio I also have German thyme, creeping thyme, astilbe, asylums, catnip, ferns, parlor palms and catgrass. All cat safe options. My cats will still eat the palms and spider plants, so they need to be harder to get to to avoid chewed ends.
Fittonia is really cute and beautiful 💟
I'm going to see what I can find from the list. Thanks!!!
Thanks brother
Love this video
Beautiful 😍 🤩 👌 😘
Thank you

Is coriander plant cat safe?
Are they safe for birds too
Nice. I'm getting a new kitten soon and want to enrich her life as an indoor cat, hence seeking plant options that are safe and don't have to be kept on a sunny ledge. I'll probably start with a spider plant as they are easy to find and keep
I’d recommend harness training! Life is always better being an Adventure Kitty!!
