We only bring cat-safe plants inside around the kitties. On occasion we’ll get a bouquet with nonconfirmed content but luckily they aren’t interested. They love cat grass, though, but one of them will only eat it if you present her one blade at a time, and you must hold it for her lol.
As a north carolinian native, I feel obligated to say that I left the state and only after I left did I get the bright idea to buy a heat gun and make a candy corn cob.
