Oh! I am so sorry to hear that about your cat. My cat never touches my plants but now I am going to check if any of the ones I have are poisonous to animals. I would be devastated if I had anything around that could harm her. Good for you in adopting a cat there are so many who need a good home.

I only have 4, and 3 of them are succulents. The other is a small 3 leaf clover plant that I got for my birthday. I use to have alot more but got rid of them all when my cat ate a leaf from a lily, which was in a bouquet on my dining room table. He was poisoned by the plant and after 3 days in the animal hospital, and $1,500.00 I had to have him put to sleep. It was one of the worst experiences of my life. I really loved that cat! I waited about 2 months before adopting another cat.

[COLOR=DimGray][SIZE=4][FONT=Arial Narrow][FONT=Arial Black]Plastic plants do not count!!!

I'm in an apartment and just started getting into houseplants over the last year or two. I'm up to eight now and wanting to add more but I'm running out of room!

How many houseplants do the rest of you currently take care of?

I have 18 houseplants. Not counting those that I'm overwintering, or cuttings that I took from outdoor plants to save for next season.
