# What’s everyone’s favorite pet-friendly plants? I’m just getting…

What’s everyone’s favorite pet-friendly plants? I’m just getting started and have a screened patio that my cats love to lounge in, but also munch on whatever I have potted! Photo of the criminals attached :)

Peperomia! The obtusifolia variety is quite hardy in my experience, and they come in a ton of really beautiful variegations and types. Here’s two of mine.

This one’s called a Peperomia Obtusifolia “Sweet-and-Sour”

Spider plants. They send off beautiful flowers and baby’s

They can be kept outside in the summer and brought inside for the winter

Parlor palm, any Echeverias, any hoyas. Oh and Pachira tree. My cat loves to nibble on pachira tree which I let her, since it's harmless and she enjoyes it so much. All of my plants are cross checked to be cat friendly! BTW your cats are so so cute. I love black cats too much. ❤️❤️ 🐈‍⬛🐈‍⬛

Thank you!!! 🖤

I am LOVING peperomias. I also have a couple nibble-happy cats, and so far these have been a great find. There’s so many varieties to fit whatever vibe you’re looking for!

From what I’ve seen Echeveria and Sedum are pet friendly succulents, and there are so many varieties of each!

### Meggs commented on 2024-06-23

I second what’s already been said in this thread, but another non-toxic plant that my cats mostly leave alone (and much is miraculous, because they both live to nibble leaves…) is my Mona Lisa lipstick plant. It’s pretty easy to care for, too! Good luck with whatever you decide to go with. 😊

This fittomia nerve plant has been good for us. My cat munched on it quite a bit before I moved it to a shelf.
