A few days ago I noticed a some brown on some needles of my juniper and when I got closer to inspect the tree I smelled cat urine. Someones damned cat has been marking my juniper like it was part of it's territory. the plant and pot reek of urine. I think the cat may have killed my juniper. There are more brown needles showing up every day.
This was one of my favorite trees.
If you repot it use a different pot as well, if current pot is clay or ceramic. Then beach the crap out of it and leave it in the sun for the summer.
I know how you feel. My neighbors cat got my chinese elm that I won in a raffle.
It's a clay pot. I think I'll just throw it away and not take a chance with it. I'm really angry that this happened. My cats are neutered for a reason. hahaha
The pot will be o.k. if you just bleach it good. No need to trash it. We got 3 cats and all are snipped(indoor cats). One likes to try to eat my trees. He tried to eat my rain-tree and now he has a hole in his tongue.
My rain-tree has thorns. The cat was abused by the owner when he was a kitten and we think he has brain damage. He literally tried to eat one of the biggest thorns on the tree.
