Don't send flowers that might include lilys
to anyone who might have a cat!
Since I made it to age 30 without knowing about the toxicity of lilys to cats, I feel obligated to mention this anecdote every time someone talks about sending flowers.
I also consider it completely unforgivable that florists don't mention this to every customer who is purchasing lilys (often in arrangements where the customer doesn't even know the contents).
