Are Christmas tress
poisonous or toxic to your pet
The answer to the question “are Christmas tress
poisonous or toxic to your pet i.e. dogs and cats” is “NO but some species of
pines are toxic” we can say its unsafe to your pets. Commonly most folk and
popular charismas tress species are blue spruce and Douglas fir which not
poisonous to cats but unsafe because of its needle like leaves which can hurt
your pets as dogs and cats are carious in nature, so it became excited to see
decorative accessories around the Christmas such as lights, gifts and so on.
But some species of pines like Norfolk pine, house pine and Australian pine, are toxic to cats. Symptoms of pine toxicity in cats include vomiting and depression, and regurgitating sharp needles can cause oral irritation.
The best alternative is artificial tree or fake
Christmas trees that are made from non-toxic plastics so if they are ingested,
they won’t present much harm. Artificial trees are reusable and are safe to
your dogs and cats.
