Keeping Kitty Away From Your Herbs!
Cats can certainly get into things, a lot of things-
and one of those things is your plants, especially potted
herb plants.
If this is happening in your household and you want a
natural solution to deter him (or her) just head to
the supermarket or drugstore and pick up some
Vick's Vapor Rub.
Yes, the same stuff Mom or Grandma used to rub on
your chest to help alleviate and end a cold.
Rub some on the sides of the pots.
The strong menthol smell is overwhelming to
your cat's nose and she or he will leave the potted plants alone.
And lastly, you may have to smear on a little more
in a week or two as the vapor rub will certainly wear off
and feel free to use vapor rub on some other things you
don't want your cat to get into.
Or use fresh peels from lemons and
oranges or black pepper.
Good Luck!

One last request, if you would take a look at our new venture-
printing helpful dog and cat tips on recycled bags, we'd certainly
appreciate it.
A small percentage goes to our pet project-
(no pun intended) to help animal shelters buy
dog and cat food...
Thank You
