Toxic Plants and Flowers

Many popular houseplants can be harmful to pets if ingested. Plants like lilies, poinsettias, and philodendrons should be kept out of reach as they can cause serious health issues. Other harmful plants include azaleas, oleanders, and tulips. Symptoms of plant poisoning in pets can range from mild gastrointestinal upset to severe organ failure. When selecting plants for pet-friendly homes, consider non-toxic options such as spider plants, Boston ferns, and orchids. Always research any new plant to ensure it is safe for your pets.
