We have 5 inside Cats, and my parents want to bring in plants for the winter, what would be a good repellent?

It is fixing to get cold down here at nights and we have 4 very active kittens, and the Mama cat inside, we rally don't want them to chew on the plants, any suggestions for a good repellent that won't hurt the plants or hurt my babies?We have 5 inside Cats, and my parents want to bring in plants for the winter, what would be a good repellent?

Cats %26amp; plants, the eternal struggle. It might be worthwhile to try a Boundary Indoor/Outdoor Cat Repellent from Lambert Kay cat %26amp; kitten repellent. These are pretty effective in keeping cats %26amp; kittens away from problem areas. An alternative is spraying cayenne pepper on the leaves. This is a safe and effective repellent. Also, when disciplining, be consistent, that is the most important thing. Check out the rest of the training tips and read some of the notes on why cats are so attracted to grass.

check a pet store, they sell repellents for couches and things, im sure they work or plants too.
Ground chile pepper sprinkled on the plants should keep them off, this is what I do to my chritmas trees every year, and it works pretty well, with out chemicals.








Here is a list of plants that are harmful to cats, some can cause kidney failure and be fatal to cats, if you have any of these plants, I'd keep them in a room the cats are not allowed in.

I suggest putting the plants in one room and shutting the door on them so the furballs can't get to them. In all of my 40 some odd years of katz, this is the only thing that has ever worked 100% for me. Some repellants work on some, but not on others and some repellants just simply stink.
there is a citrus spray a repelant especially for cats they cant stand it. or you could just try putting fresh orange peel in your plant pots. make sure your kittens have lots of dangely things away from the plants to plat with.


if all else what worked for my cat with the clothes on the line, i would watch him and squirt him with a water gun/squirt bottle (not high pressure) it's not cruel and it only takes a couple of days till they learn
Offhand there's nothing that I know of that you can put on the plants. Try putting these plants in a spot where you know they can't get to them. You may have to spread the plants around the house tho, but it's better to be safe than sorry.
theres a product called shoo that should b available in the pet stores or u can always use garlic. that usually does the trick. do u know if any of these plants r poisonous if the cats should happen to start chewing on them. ur vet might know or u can call ur county agricultural dept.
