Extractions: Animal Poison Control Center Plants and Your Cat Cat Plant Eating Survey - The Veterinary Behavior Service at the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine is currently conducting a study investigating why dogs and cats eat plants (grass, flowers, leaves, twigs, etc.). Although many theories have been proposed, this is the first study to scientifically investigate the age-old question "Why do dogs and cats eat grass?" The more information we gather, the better we will understand this behavior. You can help by submitting data. Please complete this survey - Cat Plant Eating Survey November 2004 Plants add the needed finishing touches to any decor. But, if you have a feline, that beautiful plant could become a deadly enemy.

http://aggie-horticulture.tamu.edu/plantanswers/publications/poison/poison.html

Extractions: Vegetation helps sustain life. We eat many plants, herbs and so forth in our daily diet. But, we must remember to be choosy. Some plants, trees or shrubs are potential killers of man. Some part of the ornamental plants or flowers in your yard may contain deadly poison. Many poisonous plants are so common and seemingly innocuous you do not suspect their toxic qualities. For example, who would expect that the beautiful oleander bush-grown indoors and outdoors all over the country-contains a deadly heart stimulant, similar to the drug digitalis? So powerful is this poison that a single leaf of an oleander can kill a child. And, many people have died merely from eating steaks speared on oleander twigs and roasted over a fire. It is easy to be deceived by plants. . .one part may be edible while another is poisonous. The following chart lists some of the more common poisonous plants.

Extractions: Poisonous House Plants Houseplants can be very beneficial in our lives. They purify and renew our stale indoor air by filtering out toxins, pollutants and the carbon dioxide we exhale - replacing them with life sustaining oxygen! However, many of our most popular houseplants come from tropical climates where the highest percentage of poisonous plants reside. If you have any of the houseplants listed below you should find out how toxic they are, and if the risk they pose to your children or pets is worth keeping them.

Extractions: House Plants The benefits of having plants in the house are well worth the effort (some would call it a labor-of-love) to nurture them along. However, many of our most popular house plants come from tropical climates where the highest percentage of poisonous plants reside. This guide to common poisonous house plants will help you determine if the risk they pose to your children or pets is worth keeping them. Keep in mind that this list is not comprehensive and you are cautioned to treat all plants as potentially harmful when it comes to your children. House plants not only convert carbon dioxide to oxygen but also trap and absorb many pollutants. Many of these chemical compounds are released into our air through a process called "off-gassing" and often come from everyday items present in our homes and office. NASA discovered over 300 organic compounds aboard the space shuttle and, in it's endeavor to conquer space, began testing common house plants for their capacity to purify indoor air . Luckily for us it turns out that some of the best house plants for cleaning our air are also very easy to grow. Feedback
50. Red Maple
Purdue University explains the symptoms and the effects of poisoning by a wide range of plants. A comprehensive database searchable by various criteria, includes pictures of plants, symptoms of poisoning and species affected.
http://vet.purdue.edu/depts/addl/toxic/plant50.htm

Extractions: INDEX 50. Red Maple Acer rubrum (maple family) TOXICITY RATING: High, death is common. ANIMALS AFFECTED: Horses only. DANGEROUS PARTS OF PLANT: Leaves, especially when fallen, damaged, or wilted. CLASS OF SYMPTOMS: Breathing difficulties, jaundice, dark brown urine, death. PLANT DESCRIPTION: Red maple is a tree of medium size, occurring naturally or planted as an ornamental. Young bark is a smooth gray color, older bark is dark and broken. Leaves are 3 to 5 lobed, with shallow notches between lobes. Underside of leaves are white. Leaves are green during the growing season and turn red in the fall. Buds, twigs, flowers, and petioles are red. The sap is not milky. SIGNS: The toxin has not been identified, but is believed to be an oxidant due to its effects on red blood cells. Only horses are known to be affected. The ingestion of wilted or fallen leaves causes massive destruction of red blood cells, and the blood can no longer carry sufficient oxygen. Ingestion of 1.5 pounds of leaves is toxic, and ingestion of 3 pounds is lethal. Wilted or dry leaves remain toxic for about a month. Fresh and undamaged leaves have not been implicated, but ingestion is still not advised. Clinical signs develop within one or two days and can include depression, lethargy, increased rate and depth of breathing, increased heart rate, jaundice, dark brown urine, coma, and death. Approximately 50% to 75% of affected horses die or are euthanized. FIRST AID: The first step is to prevent further consumption by the horse (and any other horses on the same pasture). There is no specific treatment, and contacting a veterinarian is advised. The veterinarian may use methylene blue, but this is not often effective in horses, but can be tried early in the course of the disorder. Treatment is symptomatic and supportive and can include mineral oil and activated charcoal to prevent further absorption in the stomach, oxygen, fluid support, and blood transfusions.

Extractions: "LEAF" IT ALONE: PLANTS TO KEEP AWAY FROM Most people are allergic to poison ivy and other poisonous plants. In fact, around 90% of the U.S. population is! The best way to keep from getting this itchy and bumpy rash is to know what these plants look like and avoid contact with them, since they won't fly up and bite you like a bug will. Sometimes contact with a poisonous plant may be unavoidable - even if you don't actually touch the plant. Say what? That's right - because it's the oil inside of the plant, called urushiol, not necessarily touching the leaf itself, that causes the rash. If your dog runs through the yard or woods and comes in contact with poison ivy, poison oak or poison sumac, the leaf or the stem can break off, spreading the oil inside of it onto your dog's fur. Then, when you pet your dog, the oil gets on your skin, which causes the reaction. The result is an uncomfortable and blistering skin rash that may itch like crazy! Once the oil comes out of the plant, it gradually takes on the appearance of a black substance. If you should come into contact with the actual plant or a "mysterious" black substance, immediately wash the skin with soap and warm water to remove any oil. If you do this within 20 minutes from when you first touched the urushiol, you have a good chance of avoiding a totally itchy outbreak. Urushiol can remain active for up to 2 months or even longer if it remains in dry, cool conditions, such as in the basement or garage. So you can touch contaminated gardening equipment, clothing, shoes or even pets for some time after they have had initial contact with the plant oil, and still get a reaction on your skin. It seems like the rash just popped out of nowhere, but the source may be right under your nose! This may

TOXIC PLANTS
Presents a list of poisonous plants to birds.
http://www.pethealthcare.net/html/body_toxic_plants.html

Extractions: Many birds naturally eat plants as part of their diet. Some birds will chew on and possibly consume plants in the course of playing. Birds left unsupervised out of their cage may easily encounter plants kept around the house and in the garden. It is important for owners to be aware of which plants are toxic to birds. Few actual studies are available in regard to plant toxicity and birds. Extrapolations from information pertaining to other species including humans concerning harmful effects must be made. The list of indoor and outdoor plants on the next page has attempted to catalogue the plants considered to be potentially toxic. If there is concern regarding specific plants not listed here then consult your local Poison Control Center or reputable nursery for more information. Some plants have been included on this list even if there is a remote possibility of concern.

http://www.rabbit.org/chapters/san-diego/health/poisonous.html

Extractions: It is difficult to create a list of poisonous plants. While some plants are outright toxic to anyone who eats or comes in contact with the plant (Jimson Weed, nightshade), others may cause a reaction in some but not in others. The following is a listing of plants normally thought to be poisonous. The list is not complete. People should not eat plants not grown as food crops. Children should be taught never to eat non-food crop plants.And you should restrict your pets' access to questionable plants. Poisonous plants vary between animals. Don't assume that since a bird, squirrel or pig ate a plant with no problems, others (human or rabbit) can do the same. Unless otherwise stated, consider all parts of the plant poisonous. Never hesitate to seek medical aid if you think a person or animal has ingested a poisonous substance. Agave (leaves)
