Stupid Omnivore!

So the Punk has started eating plants. I thought I should check on line to make sure that none of my plants are poisonous to cats.

In fact, ALL of my plants are poisonous to cats. Every last one, except for the rosemary, which is currently dying from some mysterious ailment. (And I'm beginning to wonder if that mysterious ailment might not have a fluffy tail and a destructive temperament.)

So if you're in the Chicago area and don't have cats and would like any of the following plants, please let me know:

Aloe Vera
Amaryllis
Nephytis
Peace Lily
Pothos

*sniff* Stupid cat. My OLD cat didn't chew on plants. Moron.

Is it just felines to which the plants are toxic? What about toddlers?

Some cats feel the need for vegetation. Go to your local pet store and get some 'cat grass'. This is a safe plant which cats seem to like better than other things.

Browsing friendsfriends, I drop the datapoint that my kitties liked to eat broccoli and othersuch when they couldn't go outside.

That cat grass is tough and full of cellulose, so it always falls over, darn it. I wonder if other sorts of sprouts would work, too.
