Pet-Friendly Flowers

Pet-Friendly Flowers

Many homes aren’t complete without a four-legged companion to greet you when you’re walking through the door. Cats and Dogs alike are oftentimes considered like family to our friends and loved ones, so the last thing that we want to do is cause our extended family any harm! Accidents happen, however here’s some things to keep in mind when sending flowers to a pet-friendly household.

It's important to know if the recipient of the flowers has pets, especially cats! Not that dogs aren't affected by certain flowers- it's just that cats are more likely to jump up on the table and try to take a nibble from your beautifully designed flower arrangement. Now as that would be a shame for the flowers, it’s more important to make sure that you aren’t doing more harm than good. For Example, the big “no - no” flower for cats and dogs alike is lilies! However there are plenty of flowers that will get along quite nicely with our furry friends!

  • Gerbera Daisies are a beautiful guilt free flower any pet lover can enjoy. Having big beautiful blooms in various shades of the rainbow.

  • Orchids are a good choice as they are non-toxic to cats and dogs alike. Offering a variety of colors and sizes, orchids are a more unique choice for our creative colleges!

  • Roses are a beautiful and classic option, having plenty of colors and varieties to choose from. They are completely stress free and fit any occasion.

  • Sunflowers offering big blooms and a beautiful reminder of summer and fall, the petals of this gorgeous flower are actually edible and are one hundred percent safe to add to any floral display!

  • Alstroemeria are a safe choice for dogs, however we wouldn't recommend them to be around our feline friends.

  • Waxflower is a beautiful choice. These smaller blooms smell of citrus and pine as well as being very hardy! They can last up to three weeks when in a vase!

  • Freesia is a non-toxic flower that comes in a beautiful variety of colors in spring time that will make a wonderful addition to any floral arrangement or bouquet.

Flowers come in so many varieties that they will always be a perfect gift for friends, loved ones and colleagues.
