Cats and plants

The other day, I discovered the joys of a local nursery (for PLANTS! Plants, people!) and loaded up on a few pieces of greenery to liven up the joint.

I got two 3-gallon pots of hardy azaleas -- good, as I'll probably kill at least one of them -- some hanging geraniums, and a palm for inside (I already forgot the name of it but it's cat-friendly).

By the way, who knew ficus was toxic to cats? So no ficus.

Anyhoo, the palm immediately fell victim to our apparently starving cats. Bernie looked like a panda last night climbing on top of the entertainment center and pulling leaves off the top of the poor thing.

Anyone know of a good, strong, cat-friendly indoor tree with tough leaves?
