TOXIC PLANTS & FOOD LISTING

 

Bird Lover’s Beware! ~

 

Here is a list of some of the more common plants that are poisonous to birds, dogs, cats, equine and other domesticated livestock as well. This list is not comprehensive by any means so please use common sense. Plants that are listed as poisonous to humans and other animals should absolutely be considered deadly to birds. Please make sure that these plants are removed from your bird's surroundings for their safety.

 

Animals do not have the enzymes required to process some foods so things that may be OK for humans to eat (chocolate, avocado, alcohol, caffiene and carbonated drinks, etc) are very deadly to your companion birds. Please see our Healthy Bird Diet listing for more info on a proper diet for your companion birds.
