Brigid The Princess is- in the building!- ;)     Purred: Tue Aug 25, '09 12:21pm PST  I am not sure if this is the right place to post this question, but.... I bought the cat grass that you grow yourself, and gave it to my cats. They both threw up right away, cat grass and saliva etc only. I am not sure if that is what is supposed to happen. It is supposed to be good for them, but that doesn't seem good if they threw it up/regurgitated it? When Brigid was first brought in, she made it out the door one time and went straight to the grass and ate a bit. When I brought her in the next day there was a HUGE hairball. I thought maybee the grass helped bring it up, but now they just throw up the grass. Any ideas? is it good for them, should I try it with them again? Why do people offer it?

It might just be that they are not used to it. myself do not buy the stuff at the pet stores, I buy seeds (Oatgrass) and grow myself, this grass is easier on their stomachs. my posts | my page | msg me | my family's posts | gift me | become friends [notify]

Bishop Mr. ``B``     Purred: Wed Aug 26, '09 6:03am PST  Our winters here are filled with TONS of snow and very cold weather. So, I am going to try the above indoor lawn for my kitties. They love grass. I let them out in my enclosed backyard and the first thing they run to is to eat the grass. And yes they throw it up as well.
