The smell wouldn't do much, but they shouldn't touch them either since it can cause skin irritation.

I also would never feel like it would ever be out of reach of a cat unless in a room the cat isn't allowed in and actively kept out of.

Thank you for your advice. Will make sure that’s the case.

Make sure there are no lillium species in your boquet.

Even licking the pollen off their fur can do permanent kidney damage.
