Well you’re in luck! Hoyas aren’t highly toxic to cats, and depending how much your cats chomp down on your houseplants it’s relatively safe to have one around. The ASPCA lists hoyas as non-toxic to dogs, cats, and horses.
Like everything, quantity matters. If your cat eats houseplants on the regular then it will most likely get some GI upset. I definitely wouldn’t put it in the same league as lilies, which are highly toxic to cats.
Seeing posts like these makes me sad that I will probably never be able to own one. They’re highly toxic to cats 😥

Dude, WHAT?
I literally got a cutting a few months ago and had to throw it away/ gifted it so someone else (?) because I read that it is super super toxic.
I feel so dumb right now, fuck.
Thanks for the information. I will see if I can source another cutting, because you need some competition here in this community 😁
