Paws Off! The Dangerous Foods You Must Avoid for Your Pets

2. Azaleas and Rhododendrons: Cats and Dogs

While azaleas and rhododendrons add a charming pink touch to gardens, they pose a serious risk to your pets if ingested. Although these flowers are visually appealing, they are highly poisonous due to the presence of grayantoxins.

Even consuming just a few leaves from azaleas or rhododendrons can lead to severe health issues, disrupting normal functions of skeletal and cardiac muscles, as well as nerve activity. Symptoms may range from digestive disturbances, loss of appetite, and diarrhea to a weak heart rate, coma, and even death.
