Is Aerangis fastuosa toxic to cats?
Aerangis fastuosa
No — aerangis fastuosa is listed by the ASPCA as non-toxic to cats. It is a sensible choice for a home with a cat; a curious nibble will not poison them, though no plant is meant to be eaten. This classification follows the ASPCA Toxic and Non-Toxic Plant List. Aerangis is not listed among the ASPCA's toxic plants, and ornamental orchids are broadly regarded as non-toxic to cats and dogs. No toxic principle is known. Chewed foliage may cause minor stomach upset from fibre alone, so discourage pets from nibbling the plant.
