Houseplants can add to the natural beauty of any Livingston rental home. However, if you do own pets, it’s essential to buy houseplants that are not poisonous. This may surprise you, but some of the most common kinds of houseplants can be toxic for your pets.
If you’re counting on the fact that your pet would never try to eat a plant, eating a toxic houseplant is not the only way these plants can cause harm to your pets. Even rubbing against some plants can bring out skin irritation, digestion problems, even more to your furry friend. Here are the top pet-safe houseplants so that your pet would be safe while you can relish in the benefits cool houseplants have to offer for your rental home.
