Is Super Kabuto Star Cactus toxic to cats?
Astrophytum asterias 'Super Kabuto'
No — super kabuto star cactus 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. Astrophytum is not listed on the ASPCA toxic plant list, and cacti (Cactaceae) are not regarded as systemically poisonous to cats or dogs. Not individually named by the ASPCA, so this is a family-level safe rating. Being spineless, it poses minimal mechanical risk, but it is still not intended for pets to eat.
