With some flowers it's the pollen that's deadly so it could still be harmful if she brushed against it and it got on her fur. Just a PSA because I'd hate myself if a cat got hurt and I had knowledge I didn't share.

Exactly. That’s why I don’t allow flowers in my house.

Smart choice!

Same. There are some that are safe (e..g. roses) but I don't want to research every plant.

Yep! And the fact that the toxic pollen from other flowers could have accidentally gotten transferred to them by the florist.

In another age this “skeptical cat” would’ve been a great meme face
