This list highlights plants that can cause severe clinical signs, including
death, if ingested by your pet. For

|
In some cases, inducing vomiting is the appropriate measure
if the plant is ingested. Hydrogen Peroxide is the best means to induce vomiting
at home, so always have it on hand. Cats should receive 1/2 tablespoon and
dogs 2 tablespoons every 5 minutes until vomiting occurs.
Inducing vomiting should only be attempted if you
are certain the pet has eaten the plant within the last 2 hours. |
