Senecio rowleyanus (Curio rowleyanus)
🔴 HIGH — Dangerous
Why is it risky?
The sap is a skin and digestive irritant, and the ASPCA lists this plant as toxic to cats, a risk that's easy to underestimate because the plant looks harmless.
Affected Systems
Digestive · Skin
Symptoms
Vomiting, diarrhea, drooling, skin irritation from direct sap contact.
What To Do
Rinse skin if there's sap contact; call a vet if the plant was ingested and the cat is symptomatic.
Notes
An increasingly popular hanging succulent, worth flagging precisely because its risk is not well known.
