Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / September 2007Any Ideas?
I brought two Hibiscis (?) trees inside for the winter. OOHHHHH I hate saying that word! Anyway, does anyone have any idea of how, short of building a chicken wire cage, I can keep the cats from tearing up the treea?

I used to have a hibiscus, that I kept away from Laku (Nico wasn't around then yet). Laku did have a go at it, while I was at work, in spite of me having told him to keep his paws and teeth off it. He tasted the leaves (I found teeth-marks), but apparently it wasn't very tasty as he didn't do a lot of damage to the plant.

No, and I doubt the chicken wire will work either. The cats should get tired of them. Jo > I brought two Hibiscis (?) trees inside for the winter. OOHHHHH I hate > saying that word!

I have to admit that empathy for houseplants has never been one of my strong points. However, I feel bad for Willow. I'm trying to envision something where the plant would still get light and air and be protected from Willow and her friends. But I'm not coming up with anything.

Feather in <Poker for Cats> My grandaughter may have the best answer. The netting like you put over strawberries with some dowl stick. Will give that a try. I have two windows where they can get light but, it is also where the cats lay. One of these plants is four years old but, I feal this may be its last year! >> Listen Mr. WINH that is exactly why I posted the qustion here!

Buy a 20" clear plastic pipe, and put the plant inside, the pipe should be high enough, that the cats cant jump in. And if one succeeds, he wont do it a second time.(I think...)

Feather in <Poker for Cats> she knew better than to ask me, my mom said if murdering plants were a crime they would have shot me years ago, Lee > > I brought two Hibiscis (?) trees inside for the winter.

Anyway, does anyone have any idea of how, short of [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > "If you don't see the mouse at the table in the first few minutes, > check your own breath for cheese." Feather in <Poker for Cats> Yes, I knew better than to ask you. About wine I ask, about plants no. BTW that Moscoto I got from Aldi's was aweful. Not full bodied enough to be a good wine, not sweet enough for a desert wine. Hate to say this as it could ruin my "don't waste andything image but" I don't even recomend it as a drain cleaner! > she knew better than to ask me, my mom said if murdering plants were a > crime [quoted text clipped - 15 lines] >> "If you don't see the mouse at the table in the first few minutes, >> check your own breath for cheese."
