Hey everyone! I just moved into a new apartment a few months back and I'm looking to add some greenery to my space. I've previously owned monstera and pothos but I'm a bit worried about my dogs potentially getting into them. I'm definitely interested in getting a Calathea, but I'd love to hear about other safe trailing plants that won't hurt my pets. Any suggestions?

Hoyas are definitely non-toxic and a great choice! You might also like the String of Hearts (Ceropegia Woodii), String of Pearls (Senecio Rowleyanus), or String of Turtles (Peperomia Prostrata). These are all safe for your furry friends.
You could also consider Swedish Ivy (Plectranthus Verticillatus) or Peperomia Hope (Peperomia Tetraphylla). They're not only non-toxic but also cute as trailing plants. Don’t forget Button Orchid (Dischidia Nummularia) and Hanging Cactus (Lepismium Bolivianum); they're great options, too!

This is so helpful, thank you! I’ll have to look into these options.
