Yes.



Two or three days after cats have eaten a few leaves

of a Tiger lily or Easter lily, they will go into renal failure. After ingesting hibiscus, a dog will

vomit persistently, may vomit blood and have bloody diarrhea. "The loss of body fluid may

be severe enough to be lethal in some cases," Dr. Buck cautions.

The most dangerous plant for cats are Lilies which are are extremely poisonous to them and can be a potential cause of kidney (renal) failure. The entire plant, leaves, stamen, pollen etc. are all poisonous. Symptoms of poisoning can occur within two hours and include vomiting, depression and lack of appetite. No matter how little of the plant has been eaten, or even if your cat has just washed pollen off it's coat, veterinary advice should be sought immediately as time is of the essence. Despite veterinary treatment a cat in the UK died within hours of washing lily pollen off it's coat, so I avoid having them in my home at all.
