Toxic Plants: Hibiscus

It's something that doesn't usually cross our minds, but some common plants in our houses and around our gardens are in fact toxic to our furry friends.

Hibiscus
 
With their beautiful flowers, hibiscus plants can add a burst of color to your home. While they are not dangerous to humans, hibiscus plants are toxic to cats. If your cat ingests any part of the hibiscus plant, they can experience symptoms like vomiting, diarrhea, nausea, and anorexia.

You should consult your vet immediately if you have any concerns. 

Tune in next Thursday for more information on toxic plants.
