Is Caradonna Salvia toxic to cats?

Salvia nemorosa 'Caradonna'

Non-toxic to cats

No — caradonna salvia 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. The ASPCA lists Sage (Salvia officinalis) as non-toxic to cats, dogs and horses, and the Salvia genus is generally regarded as non-toxic. 'Caradonna' (Salvia nemorosa) is an ornamental relative not individually listed by the ASPCA but shares this non-toxic genus profile; as with any plant, eating large amounts may cause mild stomach upset, so casual nibbling is not a concern.
