:SmilieDaisy: Hi everyone,
I was just wondering if anyone could tell me what kind of plants these are. I know one of them is heartleaf philodenderon (devils ivy, pothos.) But I'm not sure what the other ones are. I need to know if they are toxic to cats. I'm Goosehazel over on TCS for those of you that are on that site too:) Any help would be great, Thanks.

Well, I can kill a houseplant with the best of them, but I am not very good with identifying them. I do know you are right on the top one being "devil's tongue", and I have seen the second one in stores but don't know the name. Silver....something (peperonium maybe) I think.... The last one has me stumped.

I'll keep digging though!

Not sure - I'll have to check it out! I have the same sort of thing in my house, and the kitties don't bother with them. As long as they have their kitty grass, then they're happy and leave all else alone!

Does this look like the middle one to you? Heck I dunno what the last one is.

That's what I thought the second one was....

Those are all indoor plants and cats are fine with them. The reason I know, (and the only reason) is because my ex has a house full of plants and some cats who, for good or bad, are still living, lol. OK, they are OK cats. Those are all extremely common house plants, by the way, but they won't hold up outdoors, Laureen, if you were thinking of that.

Silly man, you are NO GOOD with names. This was from Laura, not Laureen.

I thought you learned your lesson with my name...

Ah, another language-challenged lady! That's OK - we need an English/English/American/Canadian dictionary to understand Sarah sometimes! It's her word, and it means, well - somewhat inebriated!
