Before adopting a cat, you must ensure your home and property are safe for them. Many people don’t think about their plants or other vegetation potentially harming cats. The good news is there are some attractive cat-friendly outdoor plants. If you have any harmful plants for cats, remove them and consider these options instead.
Rattlesnake Plant
Rattlesnake plants are safe for cats, but regular snake plants are not. Ensure you get the correct type. Rattlesnake plants have beautiful purple and green leaves and are relatively low-maintenance.
Ponytail Palm
Ponytail palms resemble palm trees but only grow about 10 feet tall if kept outdoors. It’s one of the top cat-friendly outdoor plants you can have and doesn’t need much care or attention to remain healthy.
Pygmy Date Palm
Pygmy date palms typically begin growing indoors but must be moved outdoors since they grow up to 12 feet tall. It’s one of the most popular cat-friendly plants for outdoor settings since they are beautiful and easy to maintain.
Cat Grass
Cat grass is safe for cats to play with and even eat. It benefits a cat’s digestion, and you won’t have to work hard to keep it growing. If your cat doesn’t eat the cat grass straight off the plant, consider cutting it and feeding it to them so you can give them a nice treat while keeping them healthy.
