My cat ate part of a Mimosa pudica plant(sensitive plant), is it poisonous?

Question

He knocked one over and half of the leaves were missing. I imagine he ate them. Will he get sick? will the plant grow back?

Answer 1

It would probably be best to have him throw it up. I don't own a cat so I don't know how you'd accomplish this, but thats what you'd do with a human. Take him to the vet once you do that.

As far as the plant...it's more than likely perfectly fine. Mimosa is weedy as h**l in the rain forest, about as hard to kill as dandelions are in America.

Answer 2

The animals would not eat anything poisonous. Your plant will grow back.

Answer 3

ASK him!

Answer 4

LOL, your cat might get a little high. I think that Mimosa plant is ok though...according to this site it's the Mimosa hostilis that is used for making ayahuasca or dmt.

Answer 5

All parts of this plant can be toxic and it is not recomended to ingest it. Just to be safe, i'd take your cat to the vet.
