Important Safety Information
Veterinary resources note that eating any plant material can cause vomiting or gastrointestinal upset in cats and dogs; plants listed as non-toxic, or as causing only mild gastrointestinal signs, are not expected to be life-threatening, but that doesn’t make them food. That’s why placement, supervision, and good care routines still matter. (and let’s be honest, a half-chewed plant probably isn’t the vibe you’re going for).

Product Details
Dionaea muscipula, commonly known as the Venus Flytrap, is one of the most iconic carnivorous plants in the world. Its modified leaves form snap traps that close when trigger hairs are touched, allowing the plant to digest insects for essential nutrients. It thrives in very bright light, including direct sunlight, and requires constantly moist, nutrient-poor soil using only rainwater or distilled water. Fertilizer should never be used, and a cool winter dormancy is essential for long-term health and vigorous growth.
