Prairie Lily

Zephyranthes drummondii

Prairie Lily (Zephyranthes drummondii), also known as Rain Lily, is a flowering plant in the Amaryllidaceae family. The ASPCA Animal Poison Control plant database lists this species as non-toxic to cats, with no toxic principle assigned. While some other plants in the Amaryllidaceae family (such as daffodils and amaryllis) are toxic, Prairie Lily itself is not classified as poisonous to cats by animal-poison authorities. As with any plant, eating large amounts of non-food material can occasionally cause mild stomach upset. If your cat shows ongoing vomiting or other concerning signs after chewing on this plant, contact your veterinarian.
