How does it affect them?
Lilies contain a nephro toxin that causes acute kidney failure. The exact toxin isn’t known, but it is water soluble and ingestion can cause death of renal cells. Some of the most commonly found lily types that are known to be poisonous are: Easter lily, Tiger lily, Japanese how lily, Rubrum lily, Day lily.
It is not just the flower but the entire plant that can lead to toxicity in cats. The leaves, stamen, pollen, flowers, and roots and even a tiny amount of water from a vase which had lilies in it can poison a cat.
