Is this ok? Does it mean he's sick? He seems fine otherwise. He took a nibble or two, he's not devouring the plant. Should I stop him or let him chew on it? I hope it's not poisonous :confused:


**UPDATE**

After perdidobay alerted me to the fact that pothos plants are poisonous, I called my vet and he told me that Mushu should probably be OK, but it'd be a good idea to induce vomiting. He told me to give Mushu 1/2 teaspoon of hydogen peroxide. I did that, and it worked. Then I gave Mushu a couple of spoonfuls of yogurt, to settle his stomach. Mushu LOVES yogurt and yes, it's safe and actually good for cats.

Thanks again, perdidobay!

P.S. My new pothos plant now has a new home in an area where Mushu can't reach it.
 
Yikes!!!! Thanks for that info! I'm going to call the vet, just in case. He took two small bites of a leaf...I hope that's not the poisonous part of the plant :(
