Is Peperomia Hope toxic to cats?

Peperomia tetraphylla 'Hope'

Non-toxic to cats

No — peperomia hope 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. Peperomia tetraphylla 'Hope' is not individually listed by the ASPCA, but the ASPCA lists multiple Peperomia species (including P. prostrata, P. obtusifolia, P. caperata and P. griseoargentea) as non-toxic to both cats and dogs, and lists no toxic members of the genus. Treated as pet-safe on that basis; still verify with your vet and discourage nibbling, as any plant can upset a pet's stomach.
