Hi guys,

I just bought a new Swiss Cheese plant, and it seems to be doing well. However, I have recently heard that it can be poisonous to cats. If so, the plant will have to go :( Can anyone here confirm this?

Regards,

The Swiss Cheese plant is poisonous to cats and humans, if you have feline friends or small children this may not be the plant for you. The leaves of the plant contain calcium oxylate and if these, or the sap of the plant, are ingested it will cause intense irritation of the mucous memb
ranes, swelling of the tongue, lips and the palate. If, after coming into contact with the sap of the plant, any of these symptoms occur then seek medical help at once, for you and your pet.

i'f you decide to throw it out, send me it.
