Thanks all!

Yeah, it’s been a challenge keeping plants. I used to have a “sacrificial” plant he could nibble on but it’s gone to that great mulch pile in the sky and I haven’t replaced it. The trick is to find something with dangly leaves (like a spider plant) and hang it up where he can only reach the tips of the leaves.

Frankly I get more upset when he chews on the book collection, but he only does that when he’s desperate for attention.

I cannot keep fresh flowers about, nor plants. If my SO were to bring home roses, I have to pull one out for the cats so that they don’t bother the arrangement.

Great concept that many can relate to! My cat will chew on any plastic bag that you put on the table or the floor…or anywhere! She’s obsessed. Great kitty expression…nice and sneaky!

This is a very nice line drawing. I like the intention of the cat. COOL

I too have a florivorous cat. My solution is to hang vases on the walls with wire harnesses. It works, but I miss having a bouquet on the table.

I think you caught his mischievous expression quite well!
