These plants are common in the home.They are not poisonous to Humans or most mammals, but they can be brought in the house by a well meaning friend/relative.
Its easy to keep a cat away from cleaning solution etc, but theses are far more dangerous!

Cat Plant Eating Survey - The Veterinary Behavior Service at the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine is currently conducting a study investigating why dogs and cats eat plants (grass, flowers, leaves, twigs, etc.). Although many theories have been proposed, this is the first study to scientifically investigate the age-old question "Why do dogs and cats eat grass?" The more information we gather, the better we will understand this behavior. You can help by submitting data. Please complete this survey - Cat Plant Eating Survey. November 2004
------------------------------...
Plants add the needed finishing touches to any decor. But, if you have a feline, that beautiful plant could become a deadly enemy.
Listed here are plants poisonous to cats that must be avoided if there are cats in your home. Note that lilies(*), in particular, are dangerous to cats. While in some cases, just parts of a plant (bark, leaves, seeds, berries, roots, tubers, spouts, green shells) might be poisonous, this list rules out the whole plant. If you must have any of them, keep them safely out of reach.
Should your feline friend eat part of a poisonous plant, rush the cat to your veterinarian as soon as possible. If you can, take the plant with you for ease of identification.

You really need to start looking into these things BEFORE putting home remedies on your cat. You can ALWAYS call your vet and ask them questions at NO CHARGE. They'll be able to tell you whether or not it will cause harm to the cat. Children's pain medication, and then aloe... You're going to end up poisoning your cat if you don't start using a little more caution and a little more common sense.

It is poisonous to cats, but only if ingested. I used it to clear up what I thought was ring worm on my cat, and he was fine. If your cat licked a small amount of gel off of his paw, chances are he probably won't get too sick. He might vomit, but cats have sensitive tummies anyway. It's like chocolate to dogs...my dog will occasionally lick chocolate off of something, which normally would be toxic to her but she's never been sick from doing it. Aloe vera is good for burns and cuts because it's antibacterial and it's a cell growth stimulator, so if you want to use it again on your cat, make sure you apply it where your cat won't be able to reach it, or only apply a small amount then rinse it away after it's been dry for about an hour. Or, simply monitor the whole ordeal.

I dont know many but im positive of fox gloves, and don't worry about it too much. Just moniter what she's eating, cats shouldn't eat that many plants at all. If your still concerned ask a vet.

Poinsetta, Philodendron and Deifenbachia for sure... there's probably others. Now me, I have three tabbies and they have never shown an interest in my houseplants - just not salad eaters I guess - so it's not an issue for me. Good for you for keeping the kitties safe.
