One of my guys has decided this is a game, he'll wait for any chance I'm not looking to outsmart me (and he's got all day to sit around thinking about this, which I don't). I just can't allow him in the room unsupervised because it only takes seconds to decimate a young crop. I live in a two bedroom condo, and it's a really pain in the *** for a few months, but all three of us (the cat, the plants and me) manage to live through it each year. Sarah
