Those who have a cat at home know firsthand how the animal loves to jump onto the windowsill to see what is happening outside the window and bask in the warm rays of the sun.
At the same time, Murka is not at all embarrassed by the fact that the place may already be occupied by pots with indoor flowers.
And if there are containers with seedlings by the window? Their acquaintance with a representative of the cat family cannot end well.
As a result, you will get gnawed leaves, broken seedlings and soil scattered on the floor.
Fortunately, it is quite easy to solve such a problem, and such a thing as toothpicks will help you with this.
As you might have guessed, they should be stuck directly into the flowerpots with plants around the perimeter.
Important: do not insert the toothpick too deeply into the soil, so as not to damage the root system.
Florists and gardeners who have tried this method assure that the most a cat can do now is to curiously sniff an obstacle that has suddenly appeared on its path.
