LILY WARNING FOR CAT OWNERS

LILY WARNING FOR CAT OWNERS
 
Lilies are extremely toxic to cats and can kill, with all parts of the plant being potentially poisonous, including the leaves, pollen and flowers. Cats can be affected after eating parts of the plant or simply by brushing past the flower and then grooming the pollen from the fur.
 
Remove any pollen by cutting this off the flowers and disposing of where the cats can't get to it.  

Signs of poisoning include continued vomiting, blindness, paralysis, renal failure and coma so if a cat exhibits any of these symptoms it is vital to get it to a vet as soon as possible as it will need urgent treatment.
