Reply:I believe Elana listed plants that are posionous to cats. Just b/c they are posionous does not mean the cat won't eat it.
Reply:Not really. Be careful you don't get one poisonous for cats. Also you may want to cover the dirt, sometimes they will use it for a bathroom.
Reply:*****EASIEST SOLUTION************************I had some Ivy that my cat ate until it was all gone. The best thing I did was get some cat grass. Its like wheat grass they sell at most grocery stores for cats. Its real easy to grow you just add water and light and my cat loves it, as long as I leave some out by his food bowl he doesn't go after the house plants. Plus its good for their digestive system to eat they grass, I think its just instinct that causes them to eat house plants if no grass is around.
Reply:There are certain plants cats do not like, but I would be more concerned on which ones are poisionous to the animal.
Reply:i would suggest you put the plants where your angel cant get to
