I've never heard that this plant is toxic for pets, but I pay extra attention to my cat to ensure she doesn't eat it. She's very good at avoiding plants, but I'm sure she'd eat this one if possible!

The Ohio Spiderwort, or Spiderwort plant, is a native perennial wildflower. This plant is characterized by its grass-like shape with long, squiggly leaves. Sometimes, the flowers have three petals, blooming in the morning and closing in the afternoon like a prayer plant.
Fun fact: this plant has similar uses to aloe vera. The leaves are slightly slimy and can relieve pain when bitten by insects.
