Why?

Forcing your animal to throw up is never an option! The best thing you can do is contact your local veterinarian or the Animal Poison Control Center's 24-hour emergency poison hotline at 1-888-426-4435 or even the Pet Poison Helpline at 1-855-764-7661. You may be asked to take the plant, the plant label, or even a sample of the vomit for further inspection at the clinic, so be prepared to do so. Source: ASPCA, 2021.
