So i guess this will be my last update on the cephalotus all perished. They had started to bounce back so well i even took a few pics ro show the progress then disaster once again my cat literally ate them she got into the plant room and i did not notice till the next morning when i got up to go to work walked in to check on them and there sits ash cat dirt all over her face and every ceph pot is on the floor not even a root left she is now a outside cat but i will try again in spring when it warms up some and its safe to ship them again so lesson i learned. Keep the cat away from your plants i hope everyone has a good Christmas and a happy new year dont guess i will i have to work on Christmas but it is what it is thanks for all of the help guys and sorry for letting you down.

Ok so the green that I had went all cloudy and died. R.I.P. Nacz didn't have any thing to sell so I ordered some from the ebay they arrived today. I plan to do my best to keep them going and to learn from my mistakes the first time so please wish me luck once again and if they do well in a few months I plan on doing my first give away. Nancy and Nacz be prepared for questions lol thanks guys
