Toxic to pets
Lilies are deadly to cats: any part, even the pollen, can cause fatal kidney failure, and a small amount is enough. The safest course is not to grow or bring lilies into a home with cats; the record lists no hazard to people. If a cat eats or is dusted with any part of a lily, contact a vet immediately.
