How about a tomato plant as a stop gap while you decide. I have one that's grown about half a cm today, so they are kind of whatchable. And you may be able to feed it to the pet when it arrives, or to yourselves, in a nice greek salad or similar.
Oh, dear Eska, plants that grow quickly?! We all know what can happen in such situations....
