The official Green Head HQ office cat Nyla Adhemar has grown a fond fetish for office plants of all kinds. I actually have a a giant Jalepeno plant growing near my desk here and it's become her private jungle. This behaviour needs to stop now so I decided that she needs her own plant to kill. I've been looking for some of that cool cat grass you can grow, but most of what I have found uses a container that will easily get knocked over by a crazy attacking dive-bombing cat. Kitty's Garden - Organic Cat Grass Kit ($9) basically uses a combination of 100% organic oats, wheat, rye and barley and grows it in a sturdy full wooden frame that won't tip over as easily.
Besides getting Nyla some cat grass, do any of you Green Heads out there have any tips for curbing your cat's desire to shred your plants? Let me know in the Comments below if you have any good tips. -

Have you tried planting a Mint plant in the office??? I have heard that cats like mint...something to do with it being part of the catnip family...
Your precious kitty may start eating houseplants if fresh vegetation is not provided. Indoor cats make it very clear about their need for fresh grassy vegetation. Lawn grass, house plants or wild grassy weeds is not a good substitute because it may not be safe for them to eat. Some house plants are even poisonous to kitties.
Dive bombing, no known cure.

Most people are afraid to feed grass to their dogs because they throw up, but dogs need it just as much as cats, possibly MORE !
BTW, a barbecue and a .22 caliber are just too cheap to go that way. Enjoy cat alacarte :) indonesian style with curry.
