I'm pretty sure Asparagus fern is ok for cats, but not 100% sure, so I thought I'd ask. My kitty loves to munch on my spider plant, which I know is ok, but she recently started snacking on my asparagus fern too. Thanks for any input you have.

The berries are very toxic, the sap is slightly toxic. I would try to keep kitty out of it if possible, why take the chance?

I consider every plant toxic until I am positive it is not.
Better safe than sorry.
