Reply:Your right to be concerned, however the pets i keep have never chewed any plants indoors or out apart from grass perhaps. If your pets are different then perhaps grow your plants in pots out of reach or put a border around your beds, otherwise you'll have to tether your dog and the cat will have to take its chances though id be more worried about traffic than plants
