What Plants on Your Balcony are Poisonous to Your Cat - Do You Know?

Tiffie eating her safe cat grass earlier in April
Well, did you know that daisies are toxic to both cats and dogs and cause vomiting, diarrhea, hypersalivation, incoordination and dermatitis? And begonias, yep, them too especially the tuber portion of the plant. Unfortunately I bought 3 large planters of them that can only rest on the floor so I watch my cat like a hawk when I am out with her. 

If you don't know what is or isn't safe just go to the ASPCA website and scroll through the plants or search for the plant by name. They have a great visual and written list. If you find this information helpful please show them a little love cause it takes moolah to keep their efforts in existence and bring this VERY important information to us!
