Did you know that just a single leaf or even some pollen from an Easter lily can be fatal to your cat? With spring coming on and Easter approaching quickly, it’s important for pet owners to be cautious about what plants and flowers they bring into their homes. Cat owners should consider forgoing the Easter tradition of having any kind of lily in the house as they are extremely toxic to cats and can cause acute kidney failure and death.
Symptoms of poisoning can include vomiting, drooling, lethargy, dehydration, and loss of appetite. If you suspect your cat has ingested any part of a lily of any kind (pollen, petals, leaves, etc.), call your veterinarian immediately. The sooner your cat is treated, the greater their chances of recovery.
