Cat friendly/non-toxic plant recommendations? I’m a brand new plant parent but I also have 3 mosey cats. I waited forever to bring plants into the house because I was afraid of them making the cats sick, but I have been learning that there are some that are safe for the cats. What are your favorite pet friendly/non- toxic plants?

My favs are calathea orbifolis, and peperomias! I also like snake plants and parlor palms, although I think the way those leaves hang/move attract my cats attention because he played with them so much I had to move out of his reach lol
0 likes I also keep wheatgrass out for mine at all times. It doesn’t last long, but I just keep growing it from seed and it sprouts quickly. Your cats can nibble on it and can keep their attention away from your other plants. It’s great for their digestion and has nutrients and antioxidants (:
