Cat Care

Cat hiccups may be cute, but is there ever cause for concern? While the occasional bout of hiccups can generally be equated to eating too quickly or even being a kitten, frequent episodes can also indicate other conditions.

For ferns, there may be concerns about their toxicity to cats and the appropriate response if a cat consumes their leaves. This article aims to safeguard your feline companion from harmful plants and provide guidance on addressing fern ingestion by your cat.
