Is Tillandsia Gardneri toxic to cats?

Tillandsia gardneri

Non-toxic to cats

No — tillandsia gardneri 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. Tillandsia (air plants), a bromeliad genus, is widely reported as ASPCA non-toxic to cats and dogs. The leaves could be a minor choking or gut-blockage hazard if a pet swallows a piece, so it is safe but best kept out of reach of animals that chew houseplants.
