Foods that are dangerous for pets: chocolate, grapes, onions and lilies, sentence 10

Lilies are very dangerous to cats: licking a little pollen off the fur or drinking the water from the vase can harm a cat's kidneys, so a cat that touches lilies needs a vet at once.

Who acts: Lilies, licking, cat · What happens: be, lick, drink, harm, touch, need · To what, where: little pollen, fur, water, vase, kidneys, lilies
