A houseplant is considered pet-safe when it appears on the ASPCA's official non-toxic plant database for cats and dogs. These plants contain no compounds that cause toxicity when ingested by pets. Our collection exclusively features plants cross-referenced with ASPCA safety data, including spider plants, Boston ferns, areca palms, and bamboo palms.

The most dangerous houseplants for pets include lilies (especially Easter, tiger, and Asiatic lilies for cats), sago palms, azaleas, tulips, daffodils, oleander, and philodendrons. These plants can cause severe poisoning or death. Cats are particularly sensitive to lily toxicity, while dogs face serious risks from sago palm ingestion. For complete identification and safety information, see our comprehensive toxic plants to avoid guide.

Yes, many excellent air-purifying plants are completely safe for cats and dogs. NASA-studied air purifiers like spider plants, Boston ferns, areca palms, bamboo palms, and rubber plants (Ficus elastica) effectively remove formaldehyde, benzene, and other indoor pollutants while being non-toxic to pets according to ASPCA data. Learn more in our complete air purifying plants guide.

Plant poisoning symptoms in cats and dogs include vomiting, diarrhea, excessive drooling, difficulty breathing, lethargy, loss of appetite, and unusual behavior. Cats may also show kidney failure signs with lily poisoning. If you suspect plant ingestion, contact your veterinarian immediately or call ASPCA Animal Poison Control at (888) 426-4435.
