I have been growing wheat grass in various little planters around my apartment for the cats- that seems to help a little.<br />I too would rather have kitties then plants.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17411984306425518138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8871554777427103509.post-28747384325242892352011-08-14T18:32:26.165-04:002011-08-14T18:32:26.165-04:00I too have a mischevious cat (Bella).

I have a few work arounds that may help - cause I just love bits of green around my condo.<br /><br />1) I put a shelf up the length of my living room window & stained it golden oak. <br />It's balanced on 2 brushed nickel handrail brackets (see link)<br />(Link: http://www.lowes.com/pd_308875-54546-27284TNXLG_0__?productId=3056529&Ntt=haindrail+brackets&pl=1&currentURL=%2Fpl__0__s%3FNtt%3Dhaindrail%2Bbrackets&facetInfo= )<br /><br />Turn them upside-down. Mount them 1 foot down from top of window; 1 each screwed into the left and right sides of window frame.<br />Then mount the shelf on top and screw it in for support about 1 foot from the top of the window. It's pretty cute and with drapery panels on the window, the handrail bracket doesn't show. Bella can't get up there (unless a large piece of furniture is too close to the window).<br />Here's another idea: a floating mason jar vase on the wall (see link) http://www.linkytools.com/click_linky.aspx?entryid=2815224<br /><br />Good luck.

Now we have an 8 month old kitten too and we've quickly learned our house is not kitten proof!

He seemed to always find a way next to them so he could chew on them though.
