Pest Problem

#TrueChristmasCactus not really a pest, but kinda… how do I stop my kittens from eating Marilyn?! They also try to eat my spider plants and I believed have killed one past the point of no return. She’s just a wee baby start the I got a few months ago and I am worried she won’t have a chance! She’s had some new growth but it was eaten and now only has one of those leaves left. Will she survive?
1ft to light, indirect

Personally I keep my plants on a high shelf they can't reach. You can also try anti-cat measures on the table or sill around the plant. They sell cat spikes. Double-sided tape worked for my cats. You can also try things that make loud noise, like crinkled aluminum foil to scare them when they walk up there. If none of that works, applying a cage around your plants can be effective so long as your cats can't knock the cage over with the plant in it.
