Are primroses safe for cats if placed on a high shelf in my room?

Question

I have 3 cats that stay indoors. Yesterday I bought Primroses to temporarily keep in my room until spring comes. I just saw online that Primroses are toxic for cats. If I put the Primroses on a shelf up high off the ground, would it be okay to keep them in my room? Or would it still be toxic to my cats? My cats always hang out in my room, but I haven't had any issues with them jumping onto my shelves.

Hello, thank you for your question. Ultimately this depends on your comfort level. In my opinion if the cats have any time at home/in your room that is unsupervised I would be worried about having the primroses out. Cats are curious animals and may try to jump onto the shelves to investigate the new addition. However, if you are home all the time with them or keep them out of your room while you're away, I don't think it would be wrong to keep the flowers. Hope this helps!
