Title: Are Orchids OK for cats or not?
Post by: clarenmax on September 04, 2008, 17:28:08 PM

I can't find the sticky for the dangerous plants list.

Does anyone know if orchids are toxic to cats?

A client bought me a gorgeous white orchid plant today, just to know whether I should keep it at the office or take it home!

Thankees hunnies  :)

According to Google, they are safe!

Strangely enough Clare I printed off a list from the internet the other week - according to that list it is a safe plant.  You can take it home if you want to chuck.

Here's the site - www.catscans.com/plants.htm

Yay, thanks peeps  ;D

I can take it home after all!  Although, it does look rather pretty on the corner of my desk, so maybe I'll decide later  :shy:

I have decided to forgo all plants for the moment as Jerry eats them regardless! :rofl:
