No, this plant is toxic to both pets and humans if ingested. It is best kept in a location that is inaccessible to curious cats, dogs, or small children.
The pot features a built-in drainage hole to support plant health, so you will need to place it on a saucer or tray to protect your furniture from water runoff.
