Non-toxic Plants
This list contains plants that have not been reported as having systemic effects on the animals
or as having intense effects on the gastrointestinal tract. Any plant material ingested by an
animal (as when dogs and cats ingest yard grass) may produce signs of vomiting, depression,
or diarrhea. These signs are generally mild and self-limiting and often do not require any
treatment.
