Plants Poisonous to Cats

If you have a cat, the plants you decorate your home and garden with can become deadly enemies.The plants listed here are poisonous to cats and should be avoided if there are felines in your home. Although in some cases, only a part of the plant (seeds, berries, leaves, bark, sprouts, tubers, etc.) might be poisonous, this list rules out the whole plant.

If you have any of these plants, keep them safely out of kitty's reach. Should your pet ingest part of a poisonous plant, rush the cat to the vet. Take the plant with you for identification.
