Cats are often naughty, and some owners grow spider plants, aloe, mimosa, and even cactus that they cannot survive. Small plants will be pushed directly from the windowsill, while large plants will either bite or roll on them. In short, cats are definitely the natural enemy of plants in the family. There are also some plants such as dripping water, which are poisonous, and it is very dangerous for cats to eat by mistake, so allowing cats and plants to live in peace is one of our masters’ important tasks.
For cats, jumping high, grinding their claws, gnawing on plants, etc. are normal behaviors, but after living with humans, these behaviors are interpreted as destructive behaviors, which is a bit unfair. The best solution is not to blindly ban it, but to provide appropriate substitutes to meet the needs of cats.
Method 1:
Hang the plants as much as possible or block them with a net. This can solve the survival problems of some plants.
Method 2:
Generate cat grass: In fact, in addition to being naughty, cats are the reason for spitting out hair balls. Cats often need to use plant fibers to promote vomiting. However, it should be noted that cat grass needs to be planted in the soil, and do not fertilize and apply insecticides. Now there are cat grass grown in crystal mud. Not only will cat grass smell bad and it is easy for cats to eat it by mistake. So don't plant cat grass in hydroponics.
Method 3:
Spray lemon juice. Cats hate the smell of lemonade. Plants that have been sprayed with lemonade can help plants escape the cat's "claws".
Method 4:
It is well known that cats are afraid of water, so every time the cat is about to get close to the plant, we spray the plants with a water kettle, so that the cat will avoid it.
Method 5:
More interact with cats and divert cats' attention through toys, games, etc. Animal behavioral research shows that the destructive ability of animals is proportional to their intelligence. Perhaps we should be proud of the intelligence that our pets have!
Don't ignore the training of cats because of your laziness!
