Which plants are poisonous to cats?





1. Azaleas should be avoided as they are moderately toxic.
2. Chrysanthemums can can cause dermatitis (mainly the stems and leaves) but luckily, the scent tends to put kitties off!
3. Daffodils or Narcissus can cause vomiting and diarrhoea.
4. Hydrangea flowers can cause tummy aches.
5. Iris bulbs are potentially dangerous but, funnily enough, the flowers and leaves are not.
6. Ivy is potentially fatal especially if kitty eats loads of it.
7. Marigold leaves and stems causes stomach upsets but pungent smell will keep kitties away.
8. Keep away from Lilies either cut flowers or the plants themselves. They can cause kidney failure and death.
9. Wisteria seeds are lethal to kitties. Sweep them up as soon as they drop or deadhead the plant well to prevent the seeds from forming.
10. Oleander - highly toxic ornamental shrub. All parts of this plant are poisonous.
