Alocasia x amazonica

Please can you help me identify this plant? I asked for a Hosta or something similar, and was told this is a popular indoor plant. I bought it because I liked it, but stupidly didn’t ask for any more info, so have no idea how I should care for it!

Tap on the plant name and you will find some information 😊

Thank you for your help! One thing that I did ask when I bought it was whether it would be safe for my Cat. I was told that it would be, however from what I’ve read online, it’s poisonous 😩

Does your cat like to chew plants? Mine totally ignores plants unless they're grass. Others on GT though have voracious plant eaters so it depends in what your cat is like. I usually put a pot of cat grass near a new plant because I know my cat will come to investigate anything that's new to her but then she chews cat grass instead. I also leave a few kibbles on a saucer around the cat grass 👍
