===Cats=== [[Cats]] are extremely sensitive to lily toxicity and ingestion is often fatal;<ref>[http://www.noliliesforcats.com/faq1.pml Frequently Asked Questions] No Lilies For Cats.</ref><ref>{{cite journal | pmid = 21147474 | doi=10.1053/j.tcam.2010.09.006 | volume=25 | title=Lily toxicity in the cat | year=2010 | journal=Top Companion Anim Med | pages=213β7 | last1 = Fitzgerald | first1 = KT| issue=4 }}</ref><ref>[http://www.petpoisonhelpline.com/poison/tiger-lily/ Tiger Lilly] Pet Poison Helpline.</ref> households and gardens which are visited by cats are strongly advised against keeping this plant or placing dried flowers where a cat may brush against them and become dusted with pollen which they then consume while cleaning. Suspected cases require urgent veterinary attention.<ref name="petmd" /> Rapid treatment with [[activated charcoal]] or induced [[vomiting]] can reduce the amount of toxin absorbed (this is time-sensitive so in some cases veterinarians may advise doing it at home), and large amounts of fluid by [[Intravenous injection|IV]] can reduce damage to kidneys to increase the chances of survival.<ref name="petmd">[http://www.petmd.com/cat/emergency/poisoning-toxicity/e_ct_lily_poisoning Lily Poisoning in Cats].
