black elder and cat attack

Questionsblack elder and cat attack
Moira Skinner Staff asked 15 years ago

yesterday I put in a black elder, healthy with flowers about to bloom, this morning it was flattened and broken, the stem is covered with cat hair as if a cat rubbed and rubbed itself on it. Is there something that attracts cats in it and also will it come back if I leave it in and protect it?
