Thou shalt not try to possesseth felines and houseplants, for surely it will end in woe as the feline will consumeth thy plants and/or createth a mess on thy rugs.
I've discovered that the secret is to live in a loft apartment like mine with 12 foot ceilings and exposed sprinkler pipes :). You can then hang the plants at a height that excludes kitty intervention.
It took me several months to realize this, but it works quite nicely :)
6. The same way I put them up. Get out the taller ladder.
My plan for the future is to put a little hook on the wall and have all the plants hung with twine and the twine run over the sprinkler pipe then to a pulley at the wall/ceiling junction. Then I can tie the twine off to the hook, and lower them as needed for watering :).
Currently I have 3 cats and around 50 house plants. I grow grass for the kitties and they mostly eat the grass. Sometimes they like to snack on the plants, but not often.
