Hi, does anyone know if piggies are Ok with lilies in the house? I know they can be poisonous (a friend‘s cat ended up very ill after tangling with some once) but is the strong smell OK for them? Thanks!

I personally wouldn't put them too close to the cage if you can help it.
The smell can really be quite strong, and piggies have a very delicate respiratory system.
Maybe have them in a different room if possible.

Take care with the lilies during floor time. One of mine ate a petal that had fallen on the floor. They are highly poisonous to cats (no research on piggies) so he went to the vets for overnight IV fluids to flush it through his kidneys. He had no ill effects and the vet said he'd probably be OK anyway but it was just precautionary.

So if I keep the lilies in another room we should be fine, thank you all
