    Tree trunks and bark to scratch on. Grass for digestion. Anything they can climb. Low shrubs for lying under when it's hot.

    I've never had a cat that was interested in cat mint. I've had neighbouring cats eating and rolling in it but mine, never. I've had a lot of cats over the years.

    ‘Sparrow grass’ (as it was once called), Dryopteros Felix, dianthus Queen of Sheba, duck weed, anemone Wild Swan, rhododendron Blue Tit, Rose Mrs R M Finch, penstemon Blackbird, Rose Seagull, ... and I am still on hold trying to get through to the GP surgery

    My outdoor cats (aka other people’s) have loved my Phormiums as they bat the long leaves and sit under the canopy. Any grass is good as they munch it.

    Just an FYI for anyone with more suggestions: the cats won't be able to go near to/touch the plants.

    Oh I see. 

    I would go for things that rustle and move in the breeze as they get all excited about movement. Could you have things that brush up against the window? They’ll love that.
