Can dogs and cats eat pothos (devil's ivy)?
Dogs
ToxicCats
ToxicNo. Calcium oxalate crystals burn the mouth.
One of the most common houseplants and one of the most common cat calls to poison lines. Rarely fatal, always painful.
What to watch for
Drooling, pawing at the mouth, swollen lips and tongue, vomiting.
If they ate it
Rinse the mouth with water, offer milk or yogurt for the burning, and call your vet if swelling affects breathing.
Toxic for dogs means: do not give it; if they ate it, call your vet or a poison line.
General information from veterinary guidance, not a diagnosis. If you are worried, call your vet or a pet poison line: ASPCA Animal Poison Control (888) 426-4435. Charges may apply.
