Is Network Calathea (Calathea Musaica) toxic to cats?

No — network calathea (calathea musaica) 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. The ASPCA lists "Calathea" (Calathea spp., family Marantaceae) as non-toxic to dogs, cats, and horses; Goeppertia is the updated botanical name for this genus, so the cultivar 'Network' is not listed individually but is covered by the genus-level non-toxic entry. As with any plant, large quantities of fibrous leaves may still cause mild stomach upset, so verify with your vet if your pet is a persistent nibbler.

Yes — the ASPCA lists network calathea (calathea musaica) 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: Network Calathea (Calathea Musaica) is non-toxic to dogs as well. See the full network calathea (calathea musaica) pet-safety guide for both species.
