Is Dracula sodiroi toxic to cats?

Dracula sodiroi

Mildly toxic to cats

Mildly. The ASPCA lists dracula sodiroi as mildly toxic to cats — a chewing cat typically gets mouth irritation, drooling, and vomiting rather than a medical emergency, but it is still best kept out of reach. This classification follows the ASPCA Toxic and Non-Toxic Plant List. Dracula sodiroi is not individually listed by the ASPCA, and the Dracula genus is not among the orchids the ASPCA classifies as non-toxic. Treat with caution and verify with a vet; chewing may cause mild GI upset.
