Title: Alice's cat grass - updated with Clapton's kitty salad pics
Post by: Mark on April 22, 2010, 13:23:51 PM: I grew this last week and it is looking really healthy. I showed it to Alice - she had a nibble and then wanted to go out.......for grass :tired:

It is being totally ignored. I put it on the corner in the hope that Kylie might eat some when she is passing - she isn't interested either :Crazy: - that was 2 days ago and it is even taller now. In the meantime, Alice is still going out for normal grass :Crazy:

Excuse the cat sick and state of the rug. I need to shampoo it when she is out :shy: - she goes into hiding even if I try to use the carpet sweeper.

Clapton likes it, but having no teeth......

I got the same stuff for Jelly who just pulled the grass out by the root and chased it around the house! Fail.....

Post by: Mark on April 22, 2010, 16:37:18 PM: I have bought those a few times but none of mine will go near them. I nearly bought some cod liver oil & malt in boots the other day a great big jar for about £4 - that is mainly all furball paste is. I wanted to try it again anyway. We were given it every days as young kids and I think I liked it. :evillaugh:

Post by: Mark on April 22, 2010, 18:49:07 PM: As Clapton tried to eat it the other day, I thought I would try something. I cut some up like I was snipping chives and put them on his food (trout flavour Sheba with binders + extra water :shify: ) and....

Bit blurry as I didn't want to put him off so had to stand well back. :Luv2: - I'm sure it is good for him - a bit like us eating wheatgrass.

Here's some pics I took last year.

I grew cat grass for Kocka but she wouldnt go near it, also tried normal grass in a seed tray, still wouldnt touch it........sigh

Mine go out for their grass and Franta has been out for a munch today, first time for over a year I think.

Alice looks like she's got some extra long fur in that pic. :Luv2:

I'm sure that it grew back longer after they shaved her for ultrasound. I rally can't remember as she had only been with me for a few weeks then.
