POISONOUS PLANTS


As we are all about to start thinking of what to grow , if it ever stops being winter! I thought I would post this list of  plants poisonous to cats that must be avoided if there are cats in your home. Note that lilies(*), in particular, are dangerous to cats. While in some cases, just parts of a plant (bark, leaves, seeds, berries, roots, tubers, spouts, green shells) might be poisonous, this list rules out the whole plant. If you must have any of them, keep them safely out of reach. Should your cat eat part of a poisonous plant, rush the cat to your vet as soon as possible. It would be helpful if you could take the plant
with you for ease of identification.
