Hi, we have had an Anthurium plant in the house for a few weeks which our cat has been chewing on. Not sure if she has been ingesting it or not but there is a reasonable amount of damage to the plant so she has been munching on it a fair bit. this is what the plant looks like now.
We didn't realise the plant was poisonous to cats until now. She has been more vocal than usual the past few days or so and a bit more subdued and little less friendly. We wondered whether she was sick and I thought to look up the plant online. looking at the effects and symptoms I can't say I've really noticed many other than the vocalisation, possibly a bit of drooling and she was sick the other night. We have removed the plant now and her appetite doesn't seem to have suffered much. Will she be fine now or should we be more worried? She has potentially ingested a fair amount of the stuff over the past few weeks. Should we take her to the vet?
