Cats are carnivorous animals, but once in a while they branch out to enjoy vegetation. Cats share some similarities with young children in that they learn about their surroundings by putting things in their mouth. If your cat likes the taste of the flowers or the plant in your house then they will continue to eat it. There are some plants that cats are more drawn to than others that are actually good for them to eat such as peppermint, lemongrass, and valerian root. Make sure that you do some research before bringing plants into your house. Lilies are insanely toxic to cats. If a cat eats any part of this plant, it can cause kidney failure or death.
