Easiest houseplant in the world to keep. If you kill a pothos you've got issues.
I have quite a few house plants but I'd have more if my damn cat didn't try to dig the dirt out of the pots all the time.
Just a tidbit I think is interesting- the familiar small, heart-shaped leaves of pothos are its juvenile foliage. The adult vine has yard-long pinatiffid leaves, sort of like Monstera deliciosa. But the plant seldom if ever reaches this stage indoors.

I have a pothos growing out of an HOB filter on my 150-NEVER have to remember to water it.
I also have a donkey's tail plant. It's a pretty cool succulent that grows really easily. It has these round, fleshy leaves that almost look like bunches of grapes. They break off really easily, but if you just toss them on top of the soil in the pot, they'll root and grow new plants.

Nah, she's just being a PITA. She leaves most of my plants alone now that she's pasted the kitten stage. The only plant I still have to put on a high shelf out of her reach in my Sago Palm. For some reason she loves chewing on it.
