Is Restrepia antennifera toxic to cats?

Restrepia antennifera

Non-toxic to cats

No — restrepia antennifera 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. Restrepia is not among the ASPCA's listed toxic plants, and ornamental orchids are broadly regarded as non-toxic to cats and dogs. No toxic principle is known. Chewing may still cause minor stomach upset from plant fibre, so it is best to keep pets from gnawing the foliage.
