    Hi Skeezy, That was a very informative video of the plants to keep away from our pets.

    Very interesting Skeeziz. Mum won’t have any of those plants in the house ever again. She’ll stick to carnations and roses!

    very informative, but do you think being around all those plants is what causes his weird eyebrow movements? *smile*

    Interesting. Several of those plants were more what I would call “garden” or “landscape” plants, not what I would call “house”plants. I also noticed he neglected to include “spider plants” and chive relatives. I’ve lived in places that featured mums, ‘zalieas, oleander and other landscape plants and never noticed any animals chewing on them. I would think that animal instincts would keep most animals safe from these plants. My guess would be that if an animal is eating these plants, there is something missing in their diet that they are trying to fill. To be sure and safe, I do keep my houseplants booby trapped with tape. ;-p
