QuestionHi!
I received 4 plants as a gift from my neighbor who is moving away.
I have cats, and I am worried if these are poisonous to them :(
Could you help me ID them?
All I have is a camera phone, so I am sorry the pictures are dark/kind of fuzzy.
The first plant is huuuge! At least 3ft across and 2-3ft tall.
It has BIG leaves, and these lily looking leaves with prickly things inside. I see this particular plant everywhere but no idea what it is. This is the one I am most worried about because I have it on the floor because I have nowhere else to put it.

The second plant is on a stand in a small pot. It looks like there are at least 4 different types of plants in it.
I took a picture from both sides.

The 3rd plant looks like.. grass? I dunno. It looks like this thing my gramma has in her yard that blooms every year into HUGE red flowers. So pretty!!

The 4th is tiny and cute. The leaves are very fuzzy. There is a teeny tiny little bud in the center that looks like a small rose.

Thanks so much if you can help me.
If you cannot I understand -- the picture qualities ARE pretty bad.. but thank you!!!
Answerbig plant: Peace lilly, Spathiphyllum sp. I don't think its poisonous.
medium plant: this is a mixed planting obviously. The one in the middle with the light colored center is a Dieffenbachia- POISONOUS. That being said, my cat ripped one to shreds and it didn't seem to bother her. The palm is a parlor palm, Chamadorea elegans. The other vines are an arrowhead vine (white variegated), an english ivy (lobed leaves), and heart-leafed philodendron. None poisonous as far as I know.
small plant 1: orchid, not sure what type. not poisonous. If your gramma has one in her yard, she lives in a tropical area, otherwise, she has something else. If you give it enough light and care, you might get it to bloom once a year.
small plant2: african violet. I don't think they're poisonous.
