With the weather today, it’s hard to believe just a couple days ago I was crunching around in the snowy woods, bundled up and shivering. I had made plans with a friend to spend the day shooting with some new studio equipment she had purchased, but when we saw the new fluffy snow and sunshine, she called a friend with 10 acres who’s willing to share and off we went. It was a great day.. met a really interesting new person and got to enjoy her great outdoors. A real treat! Anyway, here’s one of the photos from that day… and one from a day last spring taken at Winterthur. You see, even though I loved the snowy outing, I still dream of spring!
It should be said that most cats will not eat plants outdoors, as long as grass is available. However, occasionally, out of boredom or curiosity, a cat may nibble a leaf or stem. From personal experience, I have shared my home at one time or another with over 40 cats, and I have yet to lose one from ingesting harmful plants.Still, if you’re of the “safe rather than sorry” frame of mind, as I usually am, you need to know which plants are potentially harmful, and by what degree.
