I have three cats, just wondering what plants (besides lily’s) are an absolute no go? My cats generally leave my plants alone, but I’m very paranoid about them getting sick.

    So yeah, like you said Lilys of any variety, very dangerous, same with eucalyptus. Will kill your cat very quickly. Any other plant will most likely just make them vomit if they eat too much of it. I have some Calathea that I’ve donated to my 3 cats. One of them has a sensitive stomach and will sometimes vomit if she eats too much. Calatheas, spider plants, Peperomia, Hoyas are all generally safe. Things I’d probably avoid but won’t kill your cat: philodendron, rubber tree, tradescantia. I’d also avoid begonias, some people say only the roots are poisonous, but I wouldn’t risk it. For the most part, if you give them some wheatgrass/their own plant to munch on, they’ll leave other ones alone. Wheatgrass is super easy and quick to grow. I grow a flat of it and my cats love eating and laying on it. Hope this helped a bit. Added a picture of two of my cats for cat tax.

      That’s awesome, thank you! And of course, I just bought a tradescantia today 🤦🏻‍♀️

      Tradescantia isn’t horrible, but it can burn their mouths. My cat ate part of a leaf once and kept drooling, so I keep it out of their reach. You can also keep dangerous plants in a protective covering, which is what I do for my begonia and oxalis. Marshall’s has huge vases, I buy those and put them over my plants upside down.

    Your cat pictured is adorable!! There’s an extensive list on cats dot org dot uk - I honestly wouldn’t risk anything with toxic plants they can get access to - cats are fragile little guys

    Pothos is toxic, but only if eaten
