My mom got these flowers as a gift and I’m not sure if they’re safe around cats. I removed a lily (I think) from the vase as soon as she brought it home, but now I’m worried about what the other flowers are since there are a few at the top that haven’t opened yet.
I’m not worried about my cat eating them or anything, but I put them in a room he doesn’t have access to just in case.

That bigger pink one at the bottom looks to me like an asiatic lily, then you have sunflowers, and roses, and i’m not sure what the skinny-petal flower is
Agree that the pink one is a lily, as are the unopened ones at the top.
Not safe around cats. You have regular lilies in here. The water they sit in, the pollen, petals, stems and leaves are all extremely toxic for cats. The rest are toxic if eaten, except for the sunflower.
Sunflower, alstromeria, rose, chrysanthemum, and asiatic lily. You’ll have to look up toxicity of each.
Apart from the species; shop bought or from your mum’s garden? As a rule, shop bought cut flowers are unsafe for pets (and humans) because of petsicides, I mean pesticides 😁.
