Is Raindrop Peperomia toxic to cats?

No — raindrop peperomia 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. Peperomia polybotrya is not individually listed in the ASPCA toxic and non-toxic plant database, but multiple Peperomia species (P. obtusifolia, P. caperata, P. argyreia, P. prostrata, P. griseoargentea) are ASPCA-listed as non-toxic to dogs and cats, with no Peperomia listed as toxic. It is therefore considered pet-safe; verify with your vet, as ingesting large amounts of any plant can cause mild stomach upset.

Yes — the ASPCA lists raindrop peperomia 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: Raindrop Peperomia is non-toxic to dogs as well. See the full raindrop peperomia pet-safety guide for both species.
