Bay Tree

Laurus nobilis

✓ MEOW APPROVED (SAFE)

The Verdict đŸŸ

After extensive research (a rigorous nap followed by a snack), I, Dr. Mittens, am pleased to announce that the Bay Tree is as safe as a sunbeam on a lazy afternoon! Yes, my dear humans, this leafy delight poses no threat to your feline companions. I wholeheartedly approve of the Bay Tree—though I still judge you for your curious taste in plants.

The Taste Test

Now, why might a curious cat like me be tempted to nibble on this herbaceous wonder? The leaves of the Bay Tree are shiny and green, resembling a toy that has been left unattended by your forgetful human. They flutter gently in the breeze, providing an enticing wiggly dance that is simply irresistible. Plus, let’s be honest, anything that smells vaguely of culinary wizardry is bound to pique my interest! Alas, I can only dream of using these leaves in my gourmet cat cuisine.

The Puke Factor

Should a daring kitty decide to munch on a Bay Tree leaf, they are in for a surprise. Fear not, my furry friends! While the Bay Tree won't lead to a dramatic escapade of rapid expulsion of lunch, it’s still wise to keep moderation in mind. A tiny nibble might just result in some mild tummy rumbles rather than an all-out gourmet rebellion.

Human Instructions

For my dear human servants, fear not the Bay Tree! Allow this greenery to remain in your abode, but keep an eye on your mischievous furballs. Just because it’s safe doesn’t mean I won’t pretend to be a culinary connoisseur seeking out “exotic” tastes. Stay vigilant!


Dr. Mittens' Safety FAQ đŸŸ

Good news! Bay Tree is generally considered safe according to the Dr. Mittens Fur-mula. While a large amount might cause a mild tummy upset (standard cat logic), it is not toxic.

How can I keep my cat away from Bay Tree?

Since it's safe, you don't have to worry much, but hanging baskets are a great way to keep your foliage out of "pounce range". Check out these <a href="https://www.amazon.com/s?k=cat+safe+hanging+planters&tag=duriancat-20" target="_blank">cat-safe hanging planters on Amazon</a>.
