plants for the inside and did not want to get any harmful plants incase the girls decided to investigate the
plants.?

Hi there Jerica. There are many websites you can go to that have a list of safe indoor plants. Just
check the links oage here, you will find one. If you can't, I know one of the link, its a Canadian Page
called Sugar Gliders, has it. Also, if you know any unsafe plants for birds, chances are they are unsafe
for gliders. Hold on and I"ll check something for you. Ok, I know I have a list of plants somewhere, but
I can't seem to find it. Well, good luck!
