Below is a list of
houseplants that are acceptable for your cat to munch on. Note that
there are conflicting reports about the aloe vera plant - so it is not
on this "approved" list
Note that if you want to
provide a plant that your cat can eat (so hopefully he will leave
your plants alone), you can purchase small containers of oat
grass.

toxic to cats is here.
