Is Tulista Pumila toxic to cats?

Tulista pumila

Non-toxic to cats

No — tulista pumila 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. The ASPCA lists Haworthia as non-toxic to cats and dogs, and Tulista pumila is the former Haworthia pumila within that complex; North Carolina Extension and horticultural references also list it as non-toxic to pets and humans. As with any plant, eating large amounts of fibrous foliage may cause mild, short-lived stomach upset.
