Ok! I think it's time your cat returned the favor. What I recommend is
the following recipe:
1 cat -- your plant eating one
4 oz hot sauce of your choice
1/8 cup fish fertilizer
2 cups water
5 gal water
Place all ingredients, except five gal water, in blender and puree until
reeeeeal smooth. Add cat-pepper-fertilizer-water puree to five gallons
of water and mix well--store mixture in jug(s). Add 2 cups of mixture
to the amount of water less 2 cups you need each time you water your
x-cat offended plant. Watch to see if leaf drooping and dropping
stops. If so, great, if not--well you're out a cat. But! You still
have a great fertilizer that's, shall we say, the cats meow--:-).
