My birds nest fern had dry, crispy ends to it’s leaves. I keep the soil moist and mist regularly. Is there something that could be causing this that I should treat or it is just my cats biting the leaves?

How much light does your fern get? Have you seen your cats chew on the leaves? How’s the drainage in the soil and pot? ☺️

I’ve definitely seen my cats chew on it, they love ferns lol. But I have it in my office, which is a south facing room. It’s probably like 5-7 feet or so from the window, so it gets bright light, the sun is not directly shining on it. I think the soil drainage seems pretty good, but the pot it came with from Lowe’s has a wick to keep it watered.
