I saw the puppy proofing in one photo. You are much more caring of your house plants than I am of mine. They are lucky to get fed once a month and maybe watered one other time during the month. The ones I have can survive being abandoned for long periods. If not, they die. But there are roughly 75 house plants in the house, not counted lately.
75! That's a good deal as well. They add up so fast especially when I go to the store and I can't resist bringing another one home.
Puppy proof utilizing whatever is close by. Lol. A folding table and a box I'm assuming you're talking about. Yes I was working in my home office and heard him drinking out of the bottom of the plant. So I just grabbed a couple things that would block him. He'll eventually grow out of that ... I hope!
