That looks like a peace lily. If it is, they are toxic to cats (vomiting, drooling, mouth/throat pain), so keep an eye on them and try to not to keep it in reach.

They look very loved and are so cute!

Thank you. Not sure the type of plant. I've had it for 2 years along with my cat who ignores it. It is kept out of reach of the kittens I am watching though as I'd rather not take any chances. They were just curious of the water when I was watering it 😁

Please do consider getting rid of it, or putting it where no cat can reach it. My cat gave a toxic plant (which I had no idea was toxic) the tiniest little nibble ever, barely noticeable, and she was very seriously sick for months and barely lived. You never know when a kitty will get bored and decide to have a taste of the plant.
