Product Description
Annual. Satisfy your cat’s craving for greens with a safe alternative to houseplants and turfgrass (which may have harmful pesticides or herbicides on it). This variety of oats has smooth leaf blades for easy digestion and does not stick to the back of their tongue as they swallow. The fast-growing grass is ready for cats at 2″ – 4″ tall and can be grown indoors in a sunny window or under grow lights. It is a wonderful treat for cats, providing nutrients, and helping to eliminate fur balls. Cats will prefer it to your houseplants and outdoor grass that may contain pesticides. Sow anytime indoors in containers. Provide the greens for your cats for a few minutes at feeding times each day until they are conditioned to it. Then, they can have more free access.

Cat grass seeds will sprout very easily—you can sprinkle them on top of any kind of moisture retaining soil or peat moss. My cats eat the sprouts very quickly. I suggest that you purchase multiple seed packs. I did so to insure that I would have more sprouts ready when the first wave was gobbled. The only drawback is shipping cost–which is more than the seed packets themselves. That’s another reason to order in multiples. The shipping cost for several packages is the same as for a single packet.

Cat Grass is not only a treat that cats love to eat, it is also good for them and will help deter them away from eating houseplants! My cat often nibbles on houseplants then throws up and I’m always afraid that it will do damage to her digestive system. When there is cat grass around, though, she only eats that – she really chows it down, and it makes her happy, too! Cat grass is also good for cats – it contains vitamins that may or may not be present in cat food, and it aids their digestive system and helps to eliminate fur balls.
Even if you do not have a green thumb, cat grass is so easy to grow, that anyone can do it and it’s also a great “project” for kids, too. The seeds sprout very quickly (if you keep them moist) and will grow quickly to 4-6inches in a window sill.
If you have cats, cat grass is a must!

The packet of these seeds that I received must have been old because I don’t believe even 10% of them grew. I tried some several times in soil and water and only got a few sprigs of grass. I garden regularly (I live in Florida) so it’s not that I don’t know how, and I even followed the instructions to the letter, but they did not grow.

This is good stuff. However, I planted it, and no cats grew up. Just grass.

I use this to grow my cat grass every month or so. Now that it’s spring I can find the terra cotta pots at the stores again. I just keep two and alternate so he always has grass growing. He loves it, so I bought several packs at once, probably more than I’ll need! I get several batches out of each packet. None have been “duds” so far either.
