    The nail colour looks really good! So bright and summery 🌞 Love all the plants you mentioned. Especially loving your calathea medallion. It looks so good for a plant that was battling spider mites!

    My kitty has zero interest in my 200+ plants 🪴 I think its because I had the plants when I rescued her and she was just a kitten. I think if you've had a pet for years and start bringing in plants and didn't have them before that any Anima would be curious 🤔I'm not sure but thankful that I don't have to worry about her eating plants haha Great video!!

  • @rebeccaagnew5798
    @rebeccaagnew5798 Рік тому

    My cats are pretty indifferent as well. I do still put my toxic plants up very high where they can’t access and keep the safe ones down below. Also got them their own catnip plant they can chew on and play with so they don’t even notice my other plants.

    Hey Fern,
    thank you for this video! 💚
    Do you know hydrospikes? Maybe it’s something for your maranta. Summer Rayne mentions them often. I got two little calatheas lately. When they are a little bit bigger, I‘ll try the hydospikes for constant moisture. 😊 That should prevent spider mites as well 😱

    Until I got my second cat it was so easy to have plants, but I wasn't interested so much in them at that time. Now I'm in love with plants and I can have a lot of them because I have my own flat. Unfortunately it's not so easy anymore with a second cat that loves to chew everything that's in his way and feels even a little bit like grass. I have plants that he doesn't like in my living room, in my bedroom I have them in terrariums, on shelves or macramas and all plants that are too big to put in the terrariums and macramas I have in my kitchen (my cat knows how to open doors, but it's the first one, and he has to have A reason to do that. I had to move their food bowls from kitchen, and he doesn't open it anymore thanks to that :) ) so I learned to manage it somehow, like they say, if there's a will there's a way ;)

    My cats are only really interested in Boston Ferns and Palms. I started my plant journey solely buying non-toxic plants and I was set on only ever buying safe plants. As time progressed, and as I started discovering more plants, my mindset shifted. I spent around 6 months monitoring my cats and seeing which plants they nibbled at, which ones they have no care for, and I soon realised that it is only Ferns and Palms. I slowly started integrating plants which aren’t safe for cats but monitored them heavily and how they acted, and here I am now, with nearly 100 plants and my cats don’t even care anymore - except for the Boston fern, that poor thing is their chew toy 😅.
    Cats are super inquisitive creatures, and also like to cause me distress when I come home and find fern and palm leaves EVERYWHERE 🙄

    • @wildfern
      @wildfern  3 роки тому

      It was awful. Nothing worked or helped so I moved. So sorry you're going through that too 😔 I used earplugs, white noise machine, stuffed things under doors so that noise wouldn't transfer as much, moved my bed to a different room, talked to them multiple times, called police etc. It totally messes with your mental health. I hope it gets better for you.

    @ladystardust9707 3 роки тому +1

    Here's what I know; I have a dog, he has 0 interest in my plants. I know people who have a house full of cats, dogs and everything in between, and they have plants with no issues. However, with that being said, the majority of plants in general are toxic to both humans and animals. Peperomias are pet-safe, and there are over 1500 species, from what I was told by the master gardener at my local nursery. Everybody's animals are different, but generally speaking, I haven't heard of any of my plant friends having issues with their pets/plants. To each their own!

    • @wildfern
      @wildfern  3 роки тому +1

      Ahh yes they are! I still don't have any peperomia, but I look forward to the day when I do. I don't know many people who have problems with their pets and plants either, luckily!
