Is Canary creeper toxic to cats?

No — canary creeper 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 Tropaeolum majus (nasturtium) as non-toxic to dogs, cats, and horses. Tropaeolum peregrinum belongs to the same genus and shares the same benign chemical profile; no toxic compounds have been reported. The RHS notes it is a skin allergen for some people — gloves are advised when handling. Flowers and young leaves are edible for humans.

Yes — the ASPCA lists canary creeper 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: Canary creeper is non-toxic to dogs as well. See the full canary creeper pet-safety guide for both species.
