If you have lilies in your home and have cats, please pay special attention! Recent foreign studies have shown that all kinds of lily flowers have a special chemical that may be fatal to cats.

Some cats appear to be more sensitive to the poison than others. The severity of kidney failure varies from cat to cat. Symptoms include vomiting, lethargy and lack of appetite. However, without proper treatment, liliotoxin can cause kidney failure and death within 36 to 72 hours.
Researchers especially warned that all kinds of lilies are toxic to cats, so remind people who raise cats at home, do not put lilies in the home to endanger the cat's life.
