Plants:
Most

Cacti and plants with sharp spiky leaves are best kept out the
home. Plastic or artificial plants are neutral and do not affect
Feng Shui. Carpets:
Choose
carpets and rugs in colors that correspond to the direction
you place them in. Carpets that cover the whole room should
suit the direction of the room itself. If it is in the southeast
part of the house, its color should be green.
Pets: • Cats belong to the element wood, so the colors
for their bedding should be blue, black or green. Red is a bad
choice for cat's bedding. Front doors opening to the northeast,
south and the northwest make cats strong and healthy. The north
and southwest are bad openings for cats. • Dogs belong
to the element earth. White baskets make them ill. Choose brown
or yellow baskets for them. Main doors facing southwest, northeast
or south makes a dog strong, while those facing southeast or
east make them ill.
