Houseplants Poisonous to Cats

Hi Judy! Thank you so much for this service, I was not sure what to do until I found you. One of my roomates recieved 4 plants from Olive Garden where he works. I did not want to bring them into the house until I knew if they were toxic or not to my cats. I think I’ve figured out what 1 of them is, but the other 3 I can’t be sure. I don’t want to take any chances of my cat having a nibble and getting sick, or worse. Thank you!
