Did you know
that there are a variety of flowers that cats like the American Curl can play
with and even eat? Likewise, there are also several types of flowers that are
toxic and can hurt your cat if he plays with them or even eats them. Your vet
can provide a list of both safe and toxic plants. On the list of toxic plants
you may be surprised to find the Buttercup. This is a beautiful flower and is
often used to decorate homes inside and outside. However, it’s deadly for cats.
If your cat eats this plant, he may start to vomit, develop diarrhea, appear
depressed, lose his appetite, become anorexic, develop hyper-salivation and
even a wobbly gait. If your cat has any of these symptoms and you have this
particular flower in or around your home, please call your Crown Point, IN
veterinarian right away. Learn more here.
