Is Graptoveria 'Bashful' toxic to cats?

Mildly. The ASPCA lists graptoveria 'bashful' 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. Graptoveria (a Graptopetalum x Echeveria cross) is not individually listed by the ASPCA; treat with caution and verify with a vet. One parent, Echeveria, is ASPCA-listed non-toxic, and the hybrid is generally regarded as pet-safe, but without a direct ASPCA listing we do not assert safe. Chewing the fleshy leaves may cause mild stomach upset.

Chewing the fleshy leaves may cause mild stomach upset. Signs usually appear soon after chewing rather than hours later — watch for drooling, pawing at the mouth, vomiting, loss of appetite, or unusual lethargy after your cat has had access to graptoveria 'bashful'.

Stay calm. Remove any plant from your cat's mouth and take the plant away. Note how much was eaten and when, and do not induce vomiting unless told to. Call your vet or the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center on (888) 426-4435 in the US, or Animal PoisonLine on 01202 509 000 in the UK and follow their advice; a leaf or photo helps the vet treat it correctly.

The ASPCA classification Growli uses applies to both cats and dogs: Graptoveria 'Bashful' is mildly toxic to dogs as well. See the full graptoveria 'bashful' pet-safety guide for both species.
