Sago Palm – Poisonous Plants for Cats and Dogs

There are many poisonous plants for dogs and cats in nature, in the house, or in the garden. The sago palm (cycad), which has recently become popular as a houseplant, is one of them. Cats, in particular, are at risk because they like to nibble on plants, and the palm’s growth form practically encourages cats to nibble.

Symptoms of poisoning from sago palm poisoning can include:

• Persistent Vomiting
• Diarrhea
• Increased salivation (drooling)
• Abdominal pain (Restlessness)
• Loss of appetite
• Lethargy
• Muscle twitching
• Tremors
• Coordination disorders (Unsteady gait)
• Cardiac arrhythmia in severe cases
