Friends who have raised cats and plants know that cats and plants can never get along peacefully; cats often eat all the potted plants. However, we all know many household potted plants are very harmful to cats. In serious cases, it even threatens the life safety of cats. Therefore, preventing cats from eating plants and enabling cats and plants to coexist peacefully is one of the important tasks for pet owners.

　　First, you can add a protective barrier around the plants you raise. Placing wire mesh or isolation nets, or burying a few mothballs in the soil, can help the plants escape from the claws of cats and avoid damage.

　　Second, you can spray some lemon water on the surface of the plants. Cats dislike the smell of lemon water. Therefore, spraying lemon water can also help plants escape from the cats’ claws.

　　Third, add several parasitic vines around the potted plants, or you can spray some bitter agent on the plant leaves, so cats will no longer come to gnaw on the plants.

　　Fourth, when cats are gnawing on plants, the owner should give strict scolding and punishment. If the cat is incorrigible, a water spray gun can be used as punishment. Gradually change the cat’s habit of gnawing plants.

　　Actually, preventing cats from eating plants is not just about protecting the safety of plants. It is also about ensuring the cat’s physical safety and preventing poisoning or life-threatening conditions caused by sneaking to eat plants. (Source：PetsZone)
