Marjoram

Origanum majorana

✓ MEOW APPROVED (SAFE)
Dr. Mittens on Marjoram

The Verdict 🐾

Ah, Marjoram. A delightful herb that won't send your whiskers twitching or your tail in a tizzy. This leafy green is deemed safe for us discerning felines! As a highly esteemed Feline Safety Researcher, I, Dr. Mittens, wholeheartedly approve of this aromatic plant. It won’t harm your delicate tummy, but that doesn’t mean I’m going to start sharing my tuna with it anytime soon!

The Taste Test

Now, one might wonder why a sophisticated feline like myself would ever consider sampling this greenery. Well, for starters, it has a delightful aroma that could easily be mistaken for a new toy—perhaps one of those wiggly ones that humans insist on throwing across the room. Plus, the crinkly leaves might just tickle my curiosity. Who knows? Maybe it’s a secret catnip cousin trying to get my attention!

The Puke Factor

Should you find me indulging in a nibble or two of this herbaceous delight, rest assured, I will not experience the dreaded “rapid expulsion of lunch.” With Marjoram being a safe choice, my only concern would be that my human might witness my dainty pawing at the pot, followed by a look of utter disdain for not being served a proper meal. After all, who needs herbs when you have the culinary wonders of tuna?

Human Instructions

Dear Human, fret not! You may allow this green invader to coexist peacefully in your abode. Just remember, it’s for your enjoyment, not mine. Now, go fetch me some tuna, will you?

Good news! Marjoram is generally considered safe according to the Dr. Mittens Fur-mula. While a large amount might cause a mild tummy upset (standard cat logic), it is not toxic.

How can I keep my cat away from Marjoram?

Since it's safe, you don't have to worry much, but hanging baskets are a great way to keep your foliage out of "pounce range". Check out these <a href="https://www.amazon.com/s?k=cat+safe+hanging+planters&tag=duriancat-20" target="_blank">cat-safe hanging planters on Amazon</a>.
