Foolhardiness

We've induced another avocado stone to grow (actually in this case it was already halfway there when we removed it from the fruit with the root already working its way through a split--irresistable!). It's got three long roots and already one failed shoot and one that's about to produce its first baby leaves. The wire cage we built last time didn't deter Biggle from pruning when Avocado's number was attained, so does anyone have any idea how to stop the cat eating the avocado?

Oh, good gracious. I thought the Flooger had strange dietary preferences ... :-)

Hmm ... I take it that the cat is good at climbing e.g. shelves? Hang it in a squirrel-proof cage in the middle of the room? :-)

Biggle is strange: he habitually licks and chews on plastic bags and, more worryingly, tries to eat candle flames. He also likes bread, but that seems trivial.

I've thought of the bird cage possibility. It might when I've got the thing potted up. I don't relish the thought of having a jamjar full of water swinging around above head height ;) I might try an empty pop bottle, except I worry about humidity.
