| Although we think of cats as carnivores, in fact | | | | - Delphinium |
| many are fond of vegetables and other plant | | | | - Decentrea |
| material. Although food preferences vary with | | | | - Dieffenbachia |
| individual cats, many will sample a plot of grass | | | | - Dumb Cane |
| outdoors, the leaves of a potted houseplant | | | | - Easter Lily |
| indoors, or other common items like shoelaces. | | | | - Eggplant |
| Cats confuse their owners by ending | | | | - Elderberry |
| grass-grazing with regurgitation or vomiting. The | | | | - Elephant Ear |
| reason for this predictable behavior is unclear, but | | | | - English Ivy |
| it has been suggested that our pets eat grass, at | | | | - Euonymus |
| least sometimes, in order to stimulate vomiting. | | | | - Evergreen |
| Relief from hairball indigestion may be one motive | | | | - Ferns |
| for plant eating in cats. However, not all | | | | - Flax |
| plant-eating leads to getting "sick", so it is a good | | | | - Four O'Clock |
| idea to consult with your vet if the pattern | | | | - Foxglove |
| continues. | | | | - Golden Chain |
| Because of this tendency to seek and ingest | | | | - Golden Glow |
| vegetation, cats may naturally experiment with | | | | - Gopher Purge |
| the taste of houseplants. Such behavior can be | | | | - Hellebore |
| undesirable, at best, or dangerous when leaves or | | | | - Hemlock, Poison |
| other plant parts are toxic. | | | | - Hemlock, Water |
| To keep your cat safe, be sure all plants in your | | | | - Henbane |
| home are safe in case of ingestion, or place them | | | | - Holly |
| out of reach. Hanging pots, for example, usually | | | | - Honeysuckle |
| lose their appeal even to curious cats. Non-toxic, | | | | - Horsebeans |
| valued plants can be protected with a small | | | | - Horsebrush |
| amount of sprayed vinegar or black pepper | | | | - Horse Chestnuts |
| solution on leaves. | | | | - Hyacinth |
| As a gift to those cats that seem determined to | | | | - Hydrangea |
| eat plants, owners can offer treats of herbicide- | | | | - Indian Tobacco |
| and pesticide-free potted grass. Grass seeds or | | | | - Iris |
| even parakeet seeds can be sprouted in seedling | | | | - Iris Ivy |
| pots and offered occasionally, the empty pot then | | | | - Jack in the Pulpit |
| re-seeded for a new batch. In small amounts, | | | | - Java Beans |
| grass can be a welcome treat for any house cat. | | | | - Jessamine |
| Listed here are plants poisonous to cats that | | | | - Jerusalem Cherry |
| must be avoided if there are cats in your home. | | | | - Jimson Weed |
| While in some cases just parts of a plant bark, | | | | - Jonquil |
| leaves, seeds, berries, roots, tubers, spouts, | | | | - Jungle Trumpets |
| green shells might be poisonous, this list rules out | | | | - Lantana |
| the whole plant. If you must have any of them, | | | | - Larkspur |
| keep them safely out of reach. Should your feline | | | | - Laurel |
| friend eat part of a poisonous plant, rush the cat | | | | - Lily |
| to your veterinarian as soon as possible. If you | | | | - Lily Spider |
| can, take the plant with you for ease of | | | | - Lily of the Valley |
| identification. | | | | - Locoweed |
