Any tips for keeping cats away from plants? My cat usually doesn’t bother the ones up on my counter but I recently got a Bella palm and she’s been chewing the leaves off.

Looked up some options  
Aversion: fresh citrus peels left on soil  
Aversion: double-sided tape (since it’s the stringy foliage, maybe you could somehow hang some down—a sticky encounter or two would probably work)  
Positive reinforcement: grow pet friendly plants like catnip and cat grass near her water dish for a cat oasis

Sheets of aluminum foil on floor surrounding palm (maybe she’ll get the message and snub it for good)
