Is Ananas lucidus toxic to cats?
Ananas lucidus
No — ananas lucidus 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. Bromeliads, including pineapple-genus plants (Ananas), are listed by the ASPCA as non-toxic to cats and dogs. The realistic risks are mechanical scratching from the leaf margins and mild, passing oral irritation if a pet chews the fibrous foliage, not systemic poisoning.
