I have had this plant for years. My cats are always trying to terrorize it. Well this time they got me good! They knocked over the 3 gallon pot and my plant flew everywhere. I have salvaged about 12 rooted pieces or more. I would really like to send all to one person. If you have Paypal that would be great! I can box it up and send ASAP. Here it is:

CLOSED: Someone Please Rescue my Plant from my Cats!
Oh, Kim...I don't have paypal, but could get the money off in today's mail. Do you think it would ship ok in these cool temps?
Kim you are going to have to punish those kitties. Take away their phone priviledge, that will teach them a lesson!!!!!!!
Bad Kitties, Bad Kitties!!!!
Sandra
Ha Ha HA Sandra!
I think they'll be Okay...Someone sent me plants from Argentina. I didn't know there was mail on Friday. They sat outside all weekend...Ooops! Still alive though :-D
Janice, Can you send a priority stamp?
It's on its way! And it will be my very first pothos! Cool!
Once again, I thank you!
Jan, Your plant is on it's way..What an experience. First...I had to beat the cats off while trying to pack them up. They were trying to terrorize them while I was rinsing and packaging. Then I couldn't find the right size box. Then after all boxed up, I notice 2 rooted pieces left in the sink...arghhh. But the biggest dumbest of all..My wonderful, kind, thoughtful, most loving Dear Husband put your box out in the rain! (when the box fits in the mailbox) I wouldn't have known it... if I didn't drive my daughter to work. Nowwww...I'm blowing drying the box, re-taping, and trying to get the smudges off...and trying not to miss the mailman.. Argghhh! LOL LOL

I know it's not funny, but I am totally cracking up here! Funny thing is, they will probably get here, my cats will scent your cats, and attack them anew! Actually, I would LOVE to see Mr. Timid drag his fat butt up to attack a hanging plant - it would certainly be worth the price of admission!
Double thank you for all of your efforts on my behalf!
he he heee
I received you package yesterday. It was warmly welcomed having been sniffed by all the kitties and pee'd on by PekeBoo! Tonight I will pot it and place it it's new home.
Thank you kindly!
OMG..LOL LOL
I warned you they be Baptised! They really look wonderful - very healthy and fresh!
Thanks again. And I have to tell you - I am TOTALLY psyched about the Campsis. I sam some growing last year and TOTALLY fell for it. At that time I was still Ms. Shy when it came to ripping off seeds, and I just stared in admitation. Now I will have my VERY OWN...too cool!
I have 9 cats and the way I solved the same problem with my plant killers is I used poster putty to hold the pot in place so they can't knock it over then I made inside-out loops of scotch tape and covered the plant with them. A few stuck to the kitties and the problem was solved.
Now digging in the dirt- can't help ya there. Mine even removed the stones.
Great Idea! Thanks sooo much
Ya know, cyber, I accidentally did the same thing! I put out yellow sticky papers to help control the whiteflies and when Timid rubbed his big fat fanny on it, it stuck to him! He was REALLY annoyed especially when I got hysterical every time I saw him! I kept trying to "help" him get it off, but he was steering clear of me. Too funny. And why didn't I think to grab the digital??? He finally walked by within reach and I yanked it off - MUCH more kitty fur than bug!
Oh I am late......sorry Kim
I also have the same plant with large leaves but I think cats are the enemy of this plant because my kitties attacked first on this plant. They damaged many beautiful leaves of my plant. But as Ursula said just to love the cat. I am doing the same because donot have other options.
