Is Bulbophyllum longissimum toxic to cats?

No — bulbophyllum longissimum 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. Orchidaceae are broadly ASPCA non-toxic to cats and dogs, lacking calcium oxalates or any recognised toxic principle; ASPCA-listed relatives include the Phalaenopsis and Leopard orchids. Bulbophyllum longissimum is not individually listed, but no genus toxicity is known. Ingesting large amounts may cause only mild, transient stomach upset.

Yes — the ASPCA lists bulbophyllum longissimum as non-toxic to cats and dogs. A cat that chews a large amount of any foliage can still get a mild, brief stomach upset, so discourage grazing, but it will not be poisoned.

The ASPCA classification Growli uses applies to both cats and dogs: Bulbophyllum longissimum is non-toxic to dogs as well. See the full bulbophyllum longissimum pet-safety guide for both species.
