I'm asking because I just covered my flower pots with pebbles - Lily loves to play with the soil so my entire place looks like a mess! :eek:
The method with the pebbles worked very well when Luna was a kitten and did the same with the soil, but Lily now is picking up the pebbles with her mouth, carries them around and plays with them.
Now I'm wondering if there's a risk she could choke on them. The pebbles are not too small, the smallest maybe have a diameter of 0,75 inches, but many of them have 1,4 inches.
Ever heard of kittens swallowing pebbles or little stones? After all, Lily has lived outdoors for a couple of weeks and has probably also played with pebbles in the garden, so she should know how to handle them, right?
