It made me lol and I wondered if any of your cats or pets do the same?

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.

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.

Yes and she'll steal bud too.

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.

DaPurps · 12-19-2010, 04:36 PM

Yep i noticed that they prefer the leaves with no resin.

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.
