A cat owner has issued a heartfelt Mother’s Day warning about the dangers of lilies – which can be lethal for felines. Every part of the innocent-looking lily plant is toxic for cats: the stem, leaves, flowers, pollen and even the water in a vase.
Cat Puddles spent two days in emergency care after poking his head for just a couple of seconds into a bouquet of flowers with a lily in the middle.
He got lily pollen on his face, some of which he may have swallowed – and that fleeting contact was enough to put his life in danger for 48 hours. Thanks to expert care at Vets Now, three-year-old Puddles pulled through and has recovered fully from his ordeal.
