Other products that keep plants healthy pose garden hazards to pets.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Look for pest control alternatives.<\/strong> You\u2019ve gone to all the trouble of planting a beautiful garden, and, understandably, you want to repel pests. Rather than reaching for chemical pesticides, opt for pest control alternatives like diatomaceous earth or nematodes to protect your plants while keeping pets safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Practice mulch safety for pets.<\/strong> Forego any mulch made from cocoa beans or cocoa shells. Use pine, cedar, or cypress mulches, which are generally considered safe. As an added bonus, cedar helps repel fleas!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Choose natural fertilizers.<\/strong> Manure, compost, potash, bone meal, and untreated grass clippings are safer alternatives to chemical fertilizers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Create a posh potty spot.<\/strong> Keep cats from digging up your garden plants by giving them their own alfresco \u201clitter box.\u201d Choose a quiet, out-of-the-way spot and line it with a couple of inches of sand or soft soil. Surround the area with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parksidevet.ca\/blog\/cat-behavior-enrichment-activities-for-indoor-cats\/\">catnip<\/a> or lemongrass to make it extra enticing to cats.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Create physical barriers.<\/strong> Keep cats from eating poisonous plants, digging, or taking potty breaks in your garden by installing chicken wire or fencing, or by using raised garden beds.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Protect Your Pet\u2019s Health<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure your cat is up to date on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parksidevet.ca\/blog\/the-power-of-pet-vaccines-in-wellness-care\/\">immunizations<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.parksidevet.ca\/blog\/dogs-and-cats-what-are-the-common-external-parasites\/\">parasite control<\/a> before letting your cat spend time in the great outdoors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contact Us for More Pet-Safe Gardening Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you\u2019re planting a few containers or sowing an acre\u2019s worth of soil, pet-proofing garden strategies protect your pets and your plants!
