Is Cymbidium devonianum toxic to cats?
Cymbidium devonianum
No — cymbidium devonianum 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. ASPCA-listed as non-toxic to cats and dogs — Cymbidium and the wider Orchidaceae family carry no toxic principles. As with any plant, a curious pet that chews a large amount may get mild, self-limiting gastrointestinal upset, and any insecticide or fertiliser residue is the real hazard, not the orchid itself.
