My felines have eaten plenty [once, the majority of a compot]; the only harm
they suffered was my fury [which didn't faze them a whole lot, at the
time]. I eventually trained them out of it with the aid of the watering
hose [squirt gun made them cautious, but didn't stop them].

Are there any cat lovers here? I know some plants are toxic to cats,
but was wondering about orchids. Is it possible that the smell of an
orchid could bother a cat? Our foster kitty has some other medical
problems that are making her obnoxious at the moment, but I was
wondering if it's coincidence that she acts so scared to come out of
hiding in the cellar, sneaking up the steps & looking around with big
eyes as if she can smell another cat in the house or something... at
approximately the same time as my brassia reached full bloom & started
putting out its fragrance.
Just curious whether anyone had any experience with their cats &
orchids not getting along.
