My cat keeps trying to eat outdoor plants. How can I stop this?

Answer

Cats are naturally curious, and some enjoy nibbling on plants. The danger lies in many common plants being toxic. First, identify any potentially toxic plants in your garden and remove them or make them inaccessible. You can offer safe alternatives like cat grass or catnip plants indoors to divert their attention. Bitter deterrent sprays can sometimes work, but supervision is key. If you suspect your cat has ingested a poisonous plant, seek veterinary attention immediately. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
