Default Dog friendly plant that will tolerate shade and damp conditions ?

I have a Laurel in a dark & damp place that gets regularly sprayed by

the
local tomcat. These conditions appear to have no effect on its growth

&
it
looks perfectly healthy. In fact it is the only plant that has thrived

in
this particular place.

Not sure if it is toxic or not though, my cat prefers to chew my

lawn......



If this is a Prunus-type laurel, such as Cherry or Portugese Laurel, it

is
deadly poisonous! Not really dog-friendly.

I would agree. I have some laurels as a border in the fenced off garden

and
as far as I knew, laurels are all pretty nasty if eaten, so that one is
indeed a non starter
