YSK: Lillies, a common flower in Easter flower arrangements, are extremely toxic for cats
Why YSK: Cats are so sensitive to the whole lily plant that it can be something as little as chewing on a small part of a leaf, grooming some pollen off their fur, or drinking vase water can lead to kidney failure and death within days. If you have cats, keep lilies completely out of the house. (Lilies are also toxic for dogs, but dog fatalities are less common than cats)
MANY plants are considered toxic for your animals, especially cats. If your cat is known to chew on leaves, double check to make sure your plants aren’t toxic. Toxic can range anywhere from an upset stomach, to something fatal like kidney failure. Unless it specifically says that it will only cause an upset stomach, you may want to lean on the more cautious side and put the plant elsewhere.
Not all lilies are toxic, there are a few that are harmless, but better safe than sorry. If your curious about which specific lilies or want a longer read- https://www.aspca.org/news/which-lilies-are-toxic-pets
