ASPCA’s poison plants list

This always bears repeating:  Be sure to read the latest version of the ASPCA’s list of toxic plants.  It includes small houseplants and large shubbery that you’d plant outside. Eli is a chronic eater of all sorts of crap — rocks, cat toys, other dog’s poop, tree branches, etc. — and I wish our neighbours didn’t have a yard surrounded by oleander hedges.  I like the oleander, and wish we could plant it, but it’s poisonous to dogs and cats.  When our neighbours trim their hedges, they slice them horizontally along the top of the wall which divides our yards, and all the excess trimmings come falling into our yard.  Then I grab a trash bag and run out to clean up, as I don’t want to invite disaster.  It really can’t be helped that the excess trimmings fall into our yard, but I sure wish the plants were safer.  Even if you don’t have pets, (looking at my sister), read the list and be a good neighbour!

  1. Such a good suggestion to read this list. My cats LOVE to eat the houseplants.
