Are the leaves of a sweet Kumquat poisonus to animals especailly cats? are ANY fruit tree leaves poison to cat's? 
I want to keep my fruit trees inside during winter, but have three cats
Gardeners.?
After an hour of searching I came across this site with the only list that includes Kumquat as a toxic tree.  It's probably not deadly, but it would most likely make your kitty ill.  Hope this helps.

Reply:Citrus leaves are chemically all about the same.  We have a veritable orchard of citrus trees.  We also have a veritable animal shelter in our back yard, and have never found any dead cats in our yard, so I suspect that if the leaves are poisonous, the cats are smart enough not to eat them.
If you're still worried, you could make a little fence of chicken wire to keep the cats off your trees.  I suspect this will mostly be of use to keep them from pooping in the pots though.
