haworthia/aloe ID?

eurypidese

Hello, I recently started collecting succulents, and I also have a cat, so I'm trying to do a lot of research on succulents that are safe around cats, and I'm wondering if someone could help me ID these so I can feel better about leaving them out!

I purchased the first one (larger on right) because I thought it was a haworthia and therefore safe around cats, but google searching leads me to believe it's some kind of spotted aloe, and therefore not safe? The second plant came to me because I specifically requested a haworthia attenuata from the local nursery, but they look...the same? I'm just not sure. If anyone could help me ID these I'd really appreciate it! (I'm aware that there are types of haworthias/aloes that are difficult to distinguish in the first place, I'm thinking this may have happened at the nursery...)

Don't worry, until I get a definitive answer these are staying on top of my bookshelf, far from curious cats...
