    Pets often love houseplants. There are a number of houseplants that are (slightly) toxic to pets. Pets are sometimes incredibly curious about a houseplant and would love to taste a bite of each green leaf. Houseplants and pets may seem like an impossible combination for this reason, but who says you have to choose between houseplants and your pets? 

    To make it easier for you to make the right choice, we at Green Bubble have made a selection of all animal-friendly houseplants. These green houseplants not only bring atmosphere into your home, but also make sure that you can leave your four-legged friends at home alone. Animal-friendly houseplants are not toxic to humans, so they pose no danger to curious children. 

    Animal-friendly plants generally do not require much attention. Of course, this differs per houseplant. After all, every plant can use some love now and then. So if you are not a pro at keeping houseplants alive, pay close attention to which houseplant you choose. 

    What is an animal-friendly houseplant? 

    With a baby or pets in the house, it's extra important to know what houseplants you're getting. Some houseplants are toxic. There are no specific characteristics that allow you to distinguish a poisonous plant from a pet-friendly plant. Poisonous houseplants can cause various reactions in your baby or pet, such as skin irritation. This you obviously want to prevent. So study carefully which plant is baby- and animal friendly before you make a choice. Green Bubble is happy to help you on your way.
