However, most pets are smart animals. Their basic, natural instincts tell them which plants are and are not toxic to them. Most toxic plants emit an undesirable odor which deters most pets from chomping down on them. However, with that being said, you should still use caution when introducing an indoor plant to your home if you have pets.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div id=\"wd-66758e6c085e8\" class=\"wd-text-block wd-wpb reset-last-child wd-rs-66758e6c085e8 text-left \">\n\t\t\t<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<p id=\"viewer-1y00v49916\" class=\"xEOXg iKTke _5HuoZ _9-Qxn\" dir=\"auto\">The four plants that are most toxic to pets in this blog are the <strong><em><u>Heart Leaf Philodendron, English <\/u><\/em><\/strong><a class=\"JFeVX Lvqid\" href=\"http:\/\/ivy.so\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-hook=\"WebLink\"><strong><em><u>Ivy<\/u><\/em><\/strong><\/a><strong><em><u>, Snake Plant, and English ivy<\/u><\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div id=\"wd-66758e7f99f1c\" class=\"wd-text-block wd-wpb reset-last-child wd-rs-66758e7f99f1c text-left \">\n\t\t\t<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<p id=\"viewer-1y00v49916\" class=\"xEOXg iKTke _5HuoZ _9-Qxn\" dir=\"auto\">The most deadly indoor plant is the <strong><em><u>Peace Lily.<\/u><\/em><\/strong> Even a small amount of licking off its pollen from their fur can cause kidney failure and even death.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div id=\"wd-66758e8912b5a\" class=\"wd-text-block wd-wpb reset-last-child wd-rs-66758e8912b5a text-left \">\n\t\t\t<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<p id=\"viewer-1y00v49916\" class=\"xEOXg iKTke _5HuoZ _9-Qxn\" dir=\"auto\">According to <a class=\"JFeVX Lvqid\" href=\"https:\/\/vcahospitals.com\/shop\/home\/articles\/top-10-toxic-household-plants-for-pets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-hook=\"WebLink\"><u>VCA Animal Hospitals<\/u><\/a> (Veterinary Centers of America), other plants that are toxic to pets include: <strong><u>(below is a direct quote from the hospital regarding plant toxicity)<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div id=\"wd-66758eafd797c\" class=\"wd-text-block wd-wpb reset-last-child wd-rs-66758eafd797c text-left \">\n\t\t\t<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<div data-breakout=\"normal\">\n<ol class=\"jozXz _5HuoZ\">\n<li class=\"I-VPx\" dir=\"auto\">\n<p id=\"viewer-gk0uk1765132\" class=\"xEOXg iKTke _5HuoZ _9-Qxn\" dir=\"\"><span class=\"bFOZY\"><strong><em>Oleander.<\/em><\/strong><em> Also known as Nerium, oleander is more commonly found in outdoor gardens, but some gardeners bring them inside for the winter.
