Hello Heather,
A while back somebody posted (I think this list) that cats don't
like aluminum foil. Also lemon oil was another. I'm lucky I guess, my
one cat never bothers with my plants except once in a blue moon he will
nibble on my Dracaena marginata.

I've got cats who find my philodendrons and gardenia delicious -- no matter where I put the plants, the cats find a way to destroy their leaves. I know there are sprays made for the garden to keep cats away -- I'm hesitant to use them on my houseplants (I don't want to harm either plant or cat). Anyone out there have any experience with this? Specific brand recommendations?
