My cat keeps trying to eat my houseplants. Are they toxic and how can I stop her?

[]

Answer

Many common houseplants are toxic to cats, including lilies, philodendrons, sago palms, and aloe vera, causing symptoms from vomiting to organ failure. It's crucial to identify your plants and remove any toxic ones or keep them completely out of your cat's reach. To deter chewing, provide alternative safe plants specifically for cats (like catnip or cat grass) and plenty of engaging toys. You can also try bitter sprays on non-toxic plants. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance.
