Do your pets chomp on your plants?

I have two cats and one of them eats some plants, but not pot plants so sometimes it's ok if he follows me into the grow room.

However, I have caught him staring at the HPS and no longer let him get into that room on his own. If it's bad for my eyes, it's got to be bad for his.

Not just chomp...

Not just chomp...

I have ten dogs. Not only do a couple like to eat the leaves, My alpha male likes to wander around the garden marking wherever he pleases.....

And not's even mention the shit....No lets....My guess is they don't like the grass tickling their ass while in the act, But every single damn one wanders out in the AM and hides a ripe turd (land mine) somewhere in the dirt....

But they do a damn good job of keeping 2 legged pests away, So the trade off is even.

My greenhouse was off my bedroom window and it would be full of plants and all I could see and hear would be one of the plants shaking and rustling as she'd chew on a few of the bottom leaves.. It always brought a smile to my face..

My cat also likes to bask in the HPS light for some reason. I try not to let him.

my fat cat LOVES to eat pot leaves..

shes not allowed in the actual garden but when we trim she gets all the fan leaves she can eat since we trash them anyway.

a friend's dog loves pot leaves too but he pukes them every time.

they dont seem to like to eat the resinous leaves though.. too volatile I think.
 
My big female cat only chomps if she doesn't have other kinds of grass to chomp. Everyone else takes small nibbles here and there. Doesn't hurt too much. We try to keep them away from the clones. Sometimes the big female things the cloners are nice big boxes so she can stretch out and lay in the sun. We've worked to correct THAT habit, though, and she doesn't do it as much anymore.

shit if myne did the would be in a compost pile turnin into plant food. no pets near the grow just bring probs.
 
But mostly if your pets are outdoor/indoor. Ours are indoor-only and we are VERY strict about keeping them inside. Growers can't afford for their pets to go outside and come back in without whatever hanging off them.

If i was slouched on the sofa with a neat weed joint in my mounth, my cat would often run up and steal the joint if it was out and just hanging there.

Both my dogs like to chew weed leaves too, i think animals just self medicate when the opportunity presents itself.

Everyday when I open the box one of the cats and my poodle come to help me and eat leaves if I let them. What I did do was grow wheat in the box with the lights and give that to the cats and dogs, They love it and leave the wife's house plants alone too. I rotate pots of wheat so its always fresh so to speak.
