Is Lilies toxic to cat?

It is vital that cats are kept away from all varieties of lilies. Every part of the plant is fatally toxic, as is the water the plant may be kept in. Eating just a tiny bit, or even licking the pollen that might fall upon the cat's fur, can cause severe illness and sometimes death. Symptoms include excessive drooling, vomiting, and loss of appetite. The cat's condition will deteriorate quickly so you must get them medical attention quickly.
