Here are the plants that pose the greatest risk to dogs and cats, as well as non-toxic options for your home.
As spring emerges, the allure of flowers and plants can enchant both gardeners and pet owners alike. However, amid the season's beauty lies a potential danger for our furry companions. Many flowers and plants, if ingested, could jeopardize the health and well-being of our dogs and cats.
Neighbor looks for low-conflict resolutions Daffodils and hyacinths, for example, contain poisonous alkaloids that can trigger symptoms like vomiting, low blood pressure, diarrhea and convulsions in dogs and cats. Similarly, tulips and lilies are highly toxic, potentially causing vomiting, irregular heartbeat and even coma if ingested. Bulbs pose a particularly serious threat as they often contain the highest concentration of toxins.
