Is Hoya Memoria (Gracilis) toxic to cats?

No — hoya memoria (gracilis) 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. Hoya gracilis (memoria) is not individually listed by the ASPCA, but the ASPCA lists genus members "Wax Plant" (Hoya carnosa) and "Sweetheart Hoya" (Hoya kerrii) as non-toxic to cats and dogs, and no Hoya appears on its toxic list, so it is regarded as pet-safe; verify with your vet if concerned. The milky latex sap can irritate sensitive skin and may cause mild, temporary stomach upset if chewed.

Yes — the ASPCA lists hoya memoria (gracilis) 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.
