A number of Christmas season plants are poisonous to pets if nibbled or eaten:
Ivy - moderate to very toxic, all parts
Holly - moderate to very toxic, especially the berries and leaves
Mistletoe - very toxic, all parts, especially the berries
Christmas greens such as balsam, juniper, cedar, pine and fir - all parts have a low level of toxicity
Hibiscus - may cause vomiting or bloody diarrhea if ingested
Poinsettias - leaves and stems low in toxicity.
It's wise to keep plants out of your pets' and children's reach.
