My cat vs my plants: citrus peels won

So my cat Luna thinks every plant in my apartment is her personal salad bar. I'd find bite marks on my snake plant, dirt everywhere, and honestly? I was terrified she'd eat something toxic and end up at the emergency vet. Then my neighbor mentioned citrus peels. Apparently cats hate the smell because it overwhelms their super-sensitive noses. I was skeptical but desperate. Now I just save my orange and lemon peels and scatter them around my plants. Luna takes one sniff and nopes right out of there. It's been three weeks and my plants are finally safe! Just remember: while the peels repel cats, citrus is actually toxic to them too if eaten in large amounts. So this only works if your cat respects the 'smell barrier.' If your cat's the type to eat first and regret later, maybe stick to cat-safe plants instead. #Pets #Cats #CatOwners
