Are you sending or receiving flowers to someone with cats or dogs? If so make sure that your bouquet is pet-friendly! Our pets have more enhanced scent-finders, aka, noses than us and the aroma that flowers bring might entice them to take a closer whiff and lead to some serious health complications.
When you talk to your florist, be sure to mention that you want pet-friendly plants, or bring in the list of plants you want to absolutely avoid!
To view the full comprehensive list of plants to avoid, please visit the ASPCA website here!
