Below is a list
of common
houseplants that are acceptable for your cat to munch on.
Note
that there are conflicting reports about the aloe vera plant - because
I received an email about a cat that died after ingesting it, I am not
putting it on this "approved" list.
Note that if you
want to
provide a plant that your cat can eat (so hopefully he will leave your
plants alone), you can purchase small containers of oat grass.
