i moved recently into a house with a lot of plants. she got sick twice since we've been here and it seems to be plants because there is nothing else here that would harm her. to be specific, are there any cacti that are bad and are poinsettias bad?

Reply:Poinsettias are highly poisonous. I've also heard that any plant from the philodendron is poisonous to cats.



I'm not sure about cactus, but as long as no thorns are involved, I don't think so. The desert animals can "snack" on cacti.

Reply:Many common houseplants are poisonous, including poinsettias. Invest in a plant book- about $7.95- or look it up on the net. Good luck with your kitty and your new home.
