Look on line? or you can make one if you check a place like Menards or Home Depot. Just get a metal wire, basket, line with moss, and plastic so it doesn't drip all over then the mix. Do you have a garden center in your area? attach a wire chain with clippies on the end. How about Hobby Lobby--again check their web site.

Do you have a Dollar General in your area? Mine has all of their hanging baskets on clearance now.

If all your garden and hardware stores have already gotten rid of garden supplies you can always try Michaels, they usually keep some things like that all year round but can be a bit more costly.

Thanks! I'll check our Dollar General and maybe Hobby Lobby.

I bought some coconut fiber hanging baskets at Walmart yesterday. They were marked down.

I went to McDonalds yesterday and got a child's Happy Meal that included a nice sized Halloween basket. It could be used for a plant, though I think I'll give mine to my cousin's Grandson.

Mine has some macramé plant hangers for a buck if you have a pot to use in it, hope yours does too!

I don't know what it is about that plant but my cat loves to eat it and then she she throws up usually on my bed!!! Grrr. I keep my bedroom door closed now.

I have had my palm for over 20 years - the stalk is as skinny as a pencil and nothing I have done over the years has made it grow wider. I have the plant in the corner in the kitchen and because it is so tall I figured Lucy couldn't reach the top of it. How wrong I was - Lucy is like an acrobat trying to get to those fronds. She will do anything including hanging upside down from my curtains to bite the top of the plant. If I don't catch her she eats all the points off the fronds.

Every summer I can't wait to get that plant outside. I cut all the top back and the new growth is always beautiful and the plant loves it outside.

My palm has done so well outside so now I am faced with a dilemma. My palm had a baby! Sprouting up from the bottom is a beautiful new addition. I have had this plant forever and it has taken this long to get another offshoot. Now what do I do? LOL I can't hang my plant because it is over 3 feet tall. If I bring it in Lucy has easy access because of the new plant growing at the bottom and I don't want to lose it. I have no place to put this plant in my house that Lucy can't get into or where there is enough light. LOL

I have to bring this plant and also my Christmas cactus which Lucy loves to eat too inside in the next couple of days. We avoided the frost last night so I have to get it inside or I will lose the plant. I have been worrying about what to do but then today I thought I will go to the hardware store tomorrow and buy some screening or chicken wire to wrap around the base. Won't look so good in the kitchen but will hopefully keep Lucy eating it and throwing up.

Darn cat - I received a hostest gift of a bouquet of flowers for my Thanksgiving table and there are pieces of palm in the vase. I woke up the day after finding Lucy had gotten up on the table and knocked the vase of water all over my wooden table just so she could get to that palm frond. I had to blow the hair dryer on the table so I could get rid of the white splotch that spread over the table from the water. I then put the vase of flowers on top of the fridge and she went up there to get to the palm and now I have it in the bathroom and she scratches at the door to try to open it.

What is it with that plant and why are cats attracted to it?
I have lots of houseplants but Lucy only goes for the palm and Christmas cactus. Chloe doesn't bother with any of them.

Good luck with your hanging basket CB - I hope it works for you. LOLOL

That's what happened to my 1st Ponytail plant! I ended up cleaning it from wherever CeCe decided to hurl it up! Well..I've solved the problem without spending money or even leaving the house! lol..I love it when that happens!

{{!gwi}}

I had one of these hanging baskets that I picked up at a yard sale a long time ago. I never used it for anything. So, I took the top basket off and put the plant in it and it's now hanging over the kitchen sink in front of the window! IF this goofy cat decides to munch on it, he's gonna have to go to a lot of trouble that will involve hanging in mid-air! lol

Cherry..CeCe love my Christmas cactus too!

Could you pick up a large bird cage at a garage sale and put the plant inside? Then find out what spray repells cats and dogs and spray on the wires, making sure you have good ventalation. Or have a wire cage made out of chicken wire?
