I rescued this Monstera last year from a sale and have never gotten round to repotting it. Well today was the day and I’m shocked! I have never seen a plant so rootbound in my life. The roots were solid and although surprisingly healthy I couldn’t gently pry them apart so I had to cut the majority of them off although she is looking much better after a repot Disclaimer- the leafs have been modified with the help of my cat, she doesn’t bite them she just enjoys testing me by slapping the leafs with her nails out

    My cat did the same thing with my heart leaf philodendron! 🙄🙈 I’ve finally got everything moved that hangs out of her reach. She’s like my kids, always testing my patience 😂

      They always seem to go for the favourites too! I have plants that i like but If they got damaged wouldn’t be particularly upset about but my cats always seem to target the coveted ones! My Albo is down two leaves thanks to their hanywork😂

      Mine always goes for whatever is newest. It’s like she thinks I bring them home for her benefit. My poor aloe plant is 8 inches shorter thanks to her!! 🤦🏼‍♀️🤣 I have one lady that likes to hide under my split leaf philodendron leaves and look out the window and another lady who would rather see how far she can push her luck with whatever she can rip down while I’m sleeping. And she’s not even the kitten, the other one is!!! 🥴
