There’s nothing like plants that pretty up the home and lift even the dourest spirits (okay, maybe all but the dourest). Today my godma’s eyes lit up when I mentioned the word “nursery” and off we went with my godpa and Wolf to the nearest nursery to check out some plants.
Since I have cats in the house, I need to ensure:
1. The plants I buy are cat-safe.
2. If they’re not, that they are hung high up securely and do not drop leaves.
After an hour, I took home 2 small cacti, 1 pot of mint (to ward away cockroaches, or so the green guides say), basil, and a lovely African Violet (which as pretty as it is, is cat-safe)!
Wolf was thrilled to be running around among plants and even enjoyed riding on my plant trolley. He did however, join his grand-godpa to check out a “naughty BMW” he called it, which he glimpsed, waited for it for 10 minutes but didn’t return. We spotted it darting off stealthily later on the way out.
Later when we got home, I hung all of them up in the conservatory (yup, the new name for the pond area) and the herbs outside the cat home. Tux and Buffy sniffed them a little but decided the cat food tasted much better.
After an exciting day, Wolf slept in an instant. It was a really fun day for him.
