Betcha can't guess what I'm growing
Besides dust on the window blind, I mean. It's a fluffy gray flower! I also have shiny black flower that doesn't fill up the pot quite as well. They fight over this "kitty bed."

2. Get a big flower pot and see if one grows.
This pot used to have a palm in it, but it died - possibly because of the plastic dish I put over the dirt to keep the cats from digging before it became a kitty bed. For a long time the palm was just a dried up stump. Then I pulled it out, and viola! A most excellent kitty bed.

4. You probably wouldn't want one of these

It's incredibly soft and well behaved and very sweet if it likes you, but it's also extra weird and a total hairbag. It used to be wild, until it made the mistake of crawling under the hood of my mom's pickup truck while it was parked at my grandma's house one cold November night. If it gets outside, it reverts and forgets who you are and has to be trapped.

One thing that's fun about it is it's completely white underneath, and you can blow a stripe down the middle of its back and pretend it's a skunk.

I have another one that looks just like it but is cream and brown with blue eyes that came from the same feral cat ghetto. It's embarrassed to have its picture taken because it has fur knots and is a gross girl at the moment. I'd be happy to take a cutting if I could get one; unfortunately, it doesn't grow in flower pots. It prefers suitcases, backpacks, and plastic bags for sleeping on.
