Search common houseplants, compare pet-safe alternatives, and know when a plant exposure needs urgent veterinary help.
Before you bring plants home
PawPlants is built for quick decisions: look up a plant, filter by pet type, then compare toxic plants with safer indoor alternatives. It is especially useful before buying a plant, repotting a gift plant, or moving a plant into a room your pet can reach.
Use the search box for names like pothos, lily, monstera, aloe, spider plant, or symptoms such as vomiting or drooling.
Dogs, cats, rabbits, and birds can react differently, so use the pet filters before deciding where a plant belongs.
The detail view gives toxic parts, symptoms, notes, and safer alternatives where available.
If your pet ate a plant: remove access, identify the plant, estimate the amount and time eaten, and call your veterinarian or a poison hotline. Do not induce vomiting unless a veterinary professional tells you to.

These focused guides answer the questions pet owners search most often. Use them with the main PawPlants search, and contact a veterinarian or poison control if your pet may have eaten a toxic plant.
If your pet ingested a potentially toxic plant, act immediately — don't wait for symptoms.
