    Our cats tend to eat on all of the flowers and plants we've had over the years. The worst we've seen is a puke or two (nothing out of the ordinary).

    No, cats are very instinctual and will only sample a small part of vegitation, usually to aid in digestion. If the cat gets sick from it he/she won't eat it again.
