Beware the Lily as it can be fatal to cats. The pollen can brush onto their coats and after they lick the pollen off and ingest it - within hours the toxin from the plant causes kidney failure and death in 32 hours unless a vet can be informed. As Valentine's day is just a month away and Lily's are very popular be careful if they are anywhere near your cat!
