Q.You Have Toxic Plants Stated As Pet Friendly In Your Article. This Is A Request To Right The Error

Zone 91304 | Akhorasani added on July 23, 2020 | Answered

On one of the articles on your website, it is stated that scented geranium is perfectly safe for cats. This is in fact a very wrong statement and I hope you look into fixing this as this plant is extremely dangerous to felines whether they ingest the stem, flowers, roots or leaves of this plant. It’s a shame that such a complete opposition to the scientific truth is stated on your website as I am sure many pet and animal owners like myself might refer to your website for clarifying information. I was very close to including a few of these plants into our catio and I’m glad we did more research. I hope next time, if you don’t have knowledge of a matter, that instead of writing fake articles, hopefully you’ll resort to no statement at all.
