2165.0. "List of plants toxic to cats is available!!" by CPDW::MCDONOUGH () Fri Jan 20 1989 11:09

    
      A listing of houseplants poisonous to cats is available from Cornell
    University. Since there was no indication of a price in the magazine,
    I'm assuming that it's for free...
    
      A copy may be obtained by writing to:
    
    
                   Cornell Feline Health Center,
                   College of Veterinary Medicine,
                   Cornell University, Schurman Hall,
                   Ithaca, New York 14853
    
                  Ask for the Spring 1984 issue of "Perspective on Cats"

2165.1From a Cornell AlumWITNES::HANNULARound Up the Usual SuspectsFri Jan 20 1989 11:427
    FWIW Cornell's phone number is 607-255-1000
    
    That is the switchboard, and they will connect you to any department.
    
    In case somebody wants to doublecheck if it's free.

2165.2Hold on..Cats magazine has itDRFIX::IVESFri Jan 20 1989 12:2414
    In the lastest issue of Cats magazine (the one with the blue point
    Himalayan on it) there is a list of house plants and flowers
    poisonist to your cat. 
    
    My copy is home but on monday we could publish a list here if
    there would be enough interest.
    
    One error they made which is a common one, is they listed the
    poinsettia as poison and, IT IS NOT. Having had my own florists
    shops for 18 years, we did a lot of research on that one as it
    affected our business. The other flowers and plants listed were
    accurate.

2165.3Pointer to other notesVAXWRK::LEVINEFri Jan 20 1989 12:386
Unless there are plants significantly different than those listed in
notes 266, 320.0, and 757, it would just be a duplication of effort
to input the list.
