Is Dyckia 'Cherry Cola' toxic to cats?

No — dyckia 'cherry cola' 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. Dyckia 'Cherry Cola' is a hybrid in the bromeliad family (Bromeliaceae). Dyckia is not individually listed by the ASPCA, but ASPCA-listed bromeliads such as the Blushing Bromeliad (Neoregelia) and Pineapple (Ananas comosus) are non-toxic to cats and dogs and the family has no recognised toxic principle. The real concern is physical injury from the sharp marginal teeth rather than poisoning, so keep it out of reach of pets and children.

Yes — the ASPCA lists dyckia 'cherry cola' 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: Dyckia 'Cherry Cola' is non-toxic to dogs as well. See the full dyckia 'cherry cola' pet-safety guide for both species.
