ajbjoy must have pets that she is concerned about possibly "tasting" her plants.

Some pets have a tendency to munch on house plants which can cause major health issues. I've had many pets over the years and was lucky that all except one was easy to train to stay away from the plants. We did have one kitty who liked to munch on my African Violets from time to time ... fortunately that was the only plant she took a liking to for some reason. African Violets are not toxic but it was Sad to walk into the room at times to find her happily grazing on a pretty Violet!

A list of plants that are toxic to cats as well as the list of dog toxic plants can be found at the ASPCA site: http://www.aspca.org/pet-care/...
