Pet-Friendly Plants FAQ

What does pet-friendly mean?

Pet-friendly plants mean that the plant is non-toxic to your pet and will not harm them if they choose to have a small nibble on it or dig into the plant. It also means that the plants contribute to good air health in your home and provide a healthy environment for you and your pet. Sometimes pet-friendly can also refer to the fact that the plants are durable and unlikely to be damaged by your pet’s occasional swatting at the leaves.

What large plants are pet-friendly?

Several plants are pet-friendly, including the Large Fan Palm, the Large Majesty Palm, and the Money Tree Plant. These plants are large, which requires you set them on the floor or a small stool or planter. With them being housed so close to the ground, you don’t have to worry about the risks of your dog or cat walking around them.

Do I have to get pet-friendly plants?

If you are a pet owner, it is a good idea to get a pet-friendly plant. There are plenty of plants available that are safe to have around your pet, like most Orchid varieties, Bromeliad varieties, a Calathea Vitatta, and various mosses, in addition to the large plants mentioned above. Just because you want something pet-friendly doesn’t mean you don’t have a lot of options.

What plants can you have with your pets around?

If you want a larger plant, opt for one of the palms like the Majesty Palm or Fan Palm. if you prefer smaller plants that can be displayed in fashionable planters, choose something like the Bird’s Nest Fern or Parlor Palm. If you prefer to hang your plants, the Preserved Fern Kokedama is a good choice. Plus, hanging your plants makes it less likely that your pet will get into them. Hanging air plants is also a good idea. Another good option to keep up and away from your pet is a small set of baby plants to perch on a decorative shelf. Try the small space bundle that includes a Peperomia and the Baby Rubber Plant. Bringing succulents in your home is another way to mitigate pet damage to your plants. They are small and are often displayed in higher places, which will keep your pets out of them.

What Pet-Friendly Plants Should You Have in Your Home?

The last thing you want is for your houseplants to pose a threat to your four-legged friend. These non-toxic plants are perfect for any space shared with a cat, dog, or other pet. Take a look at our collection of pet-friendly plants to complete your shared space.

If you know that the plant will be displayed in an area of the home that your pet doesn’t frequent, it might be okay to keep a plant that isn’t considered pet-friendly. However, accidents happen with pets, so it is best to err on the side of caution and purchase a pet-friendly plant.
