Are Freesias Toxic to Dogs or Cats?
Why Freesia is considered safe
Non-toxic: a fragrant bouquet flower safe for both dogs and cats, unlike true lilies which are frequently mixed into the same arrangements and are deadly to cats. Only mild GI upset possible if eaten in quantity.
Freesia spp.
What to do if your pet chewed it
Safe means non-toxic, not edible. A curious nibble is not a concern, but heavy grazing on any houseplant can still upset a stomach. Call your vet if your pet seems unwell.
