orchids toxic to cats?
My 3 cats all like to eat thin leaved orchids. They also like jasmine and coffee
plants (who'd think a cat would want coffee in the morning?). The ones that are not in my grow room I've grouped together for mutual protection (circle the wagons) as individual plants offer 360 degrees of attack. I've tried oat grass and it is a bit of a diversion for them. Problem is it "goes off" after a couple of weeks and then I have to grow more. What's working really well is a small sedge (cyperus) that I've made readily available to them and they're quite happily relentless with it. Fortunately it's a fast growing plant. This has significantly reduced the damage to the orchids. Doug I rather wish Cats WERE allergic to orchids! Our youngest cat likes to eat mine down to little nubs. The other two just like to lay there and share window space with them. -- |
