    How Toxic Is A Tulip Leaf To A Cat?

    A kitten we have was chewing on tulip leaves hours ago and is showing no symptoms. According to several websites tulips are toxic. I'm assuming he's fine since hours have passed.

    Keep an eye on the kitty, just to be safe, but I have a cat that tries to eat the green leaves every year they come up. I have never let her eat the petals of the flower, but she oddly never gets sick, but I think she knows her limits too, so keep your eyes open. Hope this helps, good luck to you.

    It does help to know that your cat is ok afterwards!

      Ingestion of tulip leaves can cause vomiting and possibly diarrhea.  When kittens have gastrointestinal upset (vomiting and diarrhea) they can become dehydrated, hypothermic, and hypoglycemic very quickly.  If your kitten starts exhibiting signs have him examined by a veterinarian.

      I was hoping it was just a "keep an eye on him" thing. He's been fine and has shown no signs of an upset stomach other than having the hiccups at one point. Thanks!
