Hey all! I have a cat, so Iâve always made sure to buy non toxic plants when I know theyâll be in his reach. Heâs never shown any interest at all so I finally got a plant Iâve wanted for a long time, a monstera! Like clockwork, as soon as I bring it home he wonât stop messing with it, and trying to bite the leaves. Itâs bigger and Iâm not able to move it out of his reach. Any cat owners have advice on how to keep him away from it?
You can try putting coffee ground in the soil but that might not help with the leaves. You could try putting something spiky or sticky around it so he wont go near it

Oh no, Iâm glad my cat doesnât play with my plants. Maybe itâs cause sheâs so old. Sheâs still energetic but she doesnât play with every single thing in the house like my momâs kitten does. Anyways, the first thing that came to my mind is a motion activated air can. My grandma uses them to keep her cat off the counter. Iâm thinking maybe you could put one in your monstera pot if itâs big. Itâs just a harmless puff of air but itâs a good deterrent for most cats
