Is Adromischus Cooperi toxic to cats?

Adromischus cooperi

Mildly toxic to cats

Mildly. The ASPCA lists adromischus cooperi as mildly toxic to cats — a chewing cat typically gets mouth irritation, drooling, and vomiting rather than a medical emergency, but it is still best kept out of reach. This classification follows the ASPCA Toxic and Non-Toxic Plant List. Adromischus cooperi is not individually listed by the ASPCA, and its family Crassulaceae includes both toxic genera (Kalanchoe, Crassula) and benign ones, so a pet-safe claim cannot be confirmed. Treat with caution, keep away from pets, and verify with a vet if ingestion is suspected; watch for drooling or vomiting.

What to do if your cat ate adromischus cooperi

  1. Remove any plant material from your cat's mouth and move adromischus cooperi out of reach.
  2. Note how much was eaten and when, and watch for drooling, vomiting, or lethargy.
  3. Do not induce vomiting unless a vet or poison-control specialist instructs you to.
  4. Call your vet or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center on (888) 426-4435 and follow their advice.
  5. Bring a leaf or photo of adromischus cooperi to the appointment so it can be treated correctly.
