hactar42,

The best thing I found is a product called SSSCAT. It is basically canned air with a motion sensor on it. When your cat gets near it, it lets out a small burst of air. I bought one a few years ago to keep our cat away from the Christmas tree.

Now if there is something I want to keep the cat away from, I just place it there for a few days. After that she’ll tend to leave it alone for a long while. She is obsessed with chewing on cords, so I just move it around the house anywhere there are cords she can get to. 90% of the time I don’t even need to turn it on. Just seeing the can keeps her away.

Stop buying delicious plants.

Or sacrifice one of your cats to appease the plant god. That should get the message through to the other cats.

PlzGivHugs,

You could try spraying them with a strong smell like lemon juice or pepper water. Depends on the cat, but generally they don’t like these smells. You could also try and find some more bite-able toys, and trt and encourage them to target those instead of the plant, although in my experience, most cats are too stubborn for that.

ooli,

put double faced tape at the base of the plant (or anything you dont want cat around) cat hate having their hair stuck… after a few days they wont touch that place anymore… you can take the tape of

My gf feeds her cats leafy greens whenever they go after her plants.

It’s not a perfect solution but it works-ish
