Reply:rule of thumb, grasses are usually safe for your cat, herbs are usually safe. There are way too many plants that are poisonous to cats to list all of them, and the lists don't all agree on which plants and what part of the plant is harmful. I wish there was an easy place that just showed plants that are good for your pet.

If you go to this web site they have a listing of the plants that are harmful to cats. There are also many other web sites with similar information.





Glad to hear that you are checking it out, good luck (my cat would love to get at some of our plants - if he was able to, lol)!
