I would like to add some plants to my home office (see picture) but I'm not sure what will grow well. I only have one 3'x4' window in my office and fluorescent lighting so I need something that can handle low lighting conditions. Ideally, I would like something that can spread sort of like ivy so that it can grow around my desk.

That would be so awesome.
Sorry that I have no solution for you, I just wanted to say that it's an awesome idea.

I forgot one more requirement...it must be non-toxic since I have a cat and dog that tend to nibble on plants.

A meat eating plant?

Pothos, sansevieria, to name two off the top of my head. Grow some wheat or barley grass for your pets to munch.
