My house cat (kitten) is getting into my houseplants. He is sitting and digging. What can I do to keep him out?

When I had house cats I used to put moth balls in the plants to prevent them from digging. You could probably put some rocks in there too, then they wouldn't be able to dig.
I would avoid the mothballs. They are poisonous. I put a layer of river rock on the soil of my houseplants. The cats completely lost interest.
I buy pebbles from the Dollar Tree & put in my houseplants, they look pretty & the cat doesn't try to dig in them. Also it doesn't effect watering your plants.
Definitely avoid moth balls and I can tell you from experience that pebbles on top of the soil will work plus the pebbles help keep moisture in the soil so it's a win win solution ;-)
