Pet Parent Tip of the Month

Add Lemon Rinds to Planters

Every cat parent knows that felines love to nibble on household plants. Not only is it annoying for you (those bedraggled begonias!), but it’s also potentially harmful to your pet. To curb the behavior, make the plants unappealing by placing lemon rinds in the dirt. (Cats detest the scent.) It’s also helpful, if your vet approves, to give the cats greenery that they can snack on, like wheatgrass or catnip. Place it near their toys or food and at least five feet from the other plants.

And on that note, skip the monstera and other plants that are toxic to pets. Toxicity varies based on the plant—some only require a whiff, while others would have to be ingested to hurt Fido. Regardless, you’ll want to avoid aloe vera, monstera, and corn plant, among others, to keep your pets safe.
