Is Invicta Gooseberry toxic to cats?

Ribes uva-crispa 'Invicta'

Non-toxic to cats

No — invicta gooseberry 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. Ribes (currants and gooseberries) are not listed by the ASPCA as toxic to cats or dogs, and the ripe fruit is edible to humans. No toxic principle is recognised for gooseberry foliage or fruit. As always, gorging on any fruit can cause mild stomach upset, so offer only in moderation.
