    So sorry about your plant Ally's Mom. I can't believe they trashed a plant that big in that short of time, and you didn't hear anything?!!?!

    May the palm rest in peace. They really should legalise plant euthansia.

    By the way, I have witnessed fake plants suicide as well. Tragic scene. Its like they jump.

    Bad kitties! I'm sure your plant will be waiting for you at rainbow bridge. Plants don't survive in my house either.

    Wow, the name of this thread sure has some potential.

    Naughty kitties! Luckily Sara has never destroyed any plants. She keeps focused on the dog instead.
    I've been BOO'd!

    Potplant?????
    Samething popped into my head when I first saw the subject line. That'll teach me to make assumptions.:rolleyes

    I got a real kick out of the suicidal plant thread.

    I too have had plants commit the awful act. I had a catnip plant that was obviously too depressed to live. He went but he could not do it all at once, he went slowly, one or two branches at a time. I know the Bob tried to console him, because I saw him loving on the plant, but the plant could not be turned and eventually was just a stub. Really sad story.

    and their happy and willing slave, Bryan.

    Many Thanks to Kay for the Picture.

    Wow!!! That is a new record. I can't have any real plants in my house either because Storm will eat them. Thanks for the great story. BTW I also thought the thread was going to be about something else.

    Here you can see what happens if you bring a new addition home without doing the proper introductions!
    This plant should have gotten a room of his own for at least 3 days. Then you should have used that screened door again so that the plant can see the kitties and get used to them.

    That maybe explains Ally and Connors quick action!!! Maybe they thougth they could have some fun with nibbling at a potplant?!
    Ally :"So this is a pot plant?"
    Connor ."Maybe we should try?"
    Ally :"It doesn't taste funny...and I don't feel funny, yet!"
    Connor: "Maybe we need some more?"
    Ally :"Or maybe it's something in the roots?"
    Connor :"Let's dig it out!!!"

    You guys are so funny!!! I stopped on the way home from work today and bought a fake one - maybe I should put it in the spare bedroom and rub it with a towel, then rub the cats..............


    Also SORRY about the "potplant" lapse of lingo - that's what we call them in Sout Africa, really....

    Thanks Kay for my great sig & avatar!!!

    I too laughed hard I learned long ago about cats and plants. Most of mine are noe hanging ones. we did have a catus issue a couple weeks ago . My fault I totally forgot the tv top was for cats not my plants. after broken glass and cat upset the cactuii are now in the bathroom as they should be (according to Sir Winky)
