Spray something on the plants that the cat won't like to smell. Maybe lemon
juice or someother citrus juice. Or Bitter apple or Eucalyptus oil. |

banana scent would work too. Also, water would work if you put enough on it
so that it will splatter at the cat when he touches them. I broke mine
from jumping on a table that way. She got used to me taking her off and
telling her no. Tapping her nose didn't work. I didn't want to spray her
and she walked around the tape strips I put up. So I finally wet it down
with some water. It was a glass top table so it didn't do damage. She
jumped up and felt it was wet and that was the end of that.

I'm a college student, in a college apartment. I'm not entirely
concerned about my decor; however, can you please post pictures of your
apartment/house so I can learn about what constitutes good style? Please
make sure to include pictures of your 30 cats. I look forward to your
pictures, thanks. >> Stay informed about: Won't leave my fake plants alone!! |

Good style: form follows function. No uselss 'decorative' objects.

The essence of bad taste is form without function... plastic plants are a
great example of that; or those fur dice hanging from the rearview mirror
in your car.
What function do your absurd plastic plants perform? And why are
your upset that your cat messes with them? >> Stay informed about: Won't leave my fake plants alone!! |

All I know is that I've seen/had it sprinkled on french toast, and it
was
always very granular. Like sand on my bread. Hate it.
