I have a couple larger weeping figs, Norfolk pine and a few smaller houseplants that I need to get rid of. They are all doing well so don't want to throw them out, but we are getting a couple kittens in a few weeks and need to find new homes for these plants. Do you know if I can donate them anywhere? I would hate to just throw them out. Thank you, Kelly
