Cat Grass Microgreens
$10.00
Cat grass treats are fresh, edible greens grown specifically for cats from safe cereal seeds like wheat, oat, barley, rye, or alfalfa. Unlike regular lawn grass or houseplants, these are pesticide-free, non-toxic sprouts that provide a semi-crunchy texture cats love to nibble on.
They come as freeze dried heart-shaped treats, offering a natural “salad” snack for indoor cats who instinctively crave vegetation. Cat grass is completely different from catnip—it doesn’t cause playful euphoria but instead satisfies a biological urge to graze.
It provides a natural outlet for cats' instinct to nibble on plants, offering fiber and other benefits without the risks of outdoor lawn grass (which may contain pesticides, fertilizers, or toxins) or toxic houseplants.
- Helps with hairball prevention and elimination: The fiber acts as roughage, making it easier for cats to pass or vomit up swallowed fur from grooming.
- Supports healthy digestion: It provides fiber that can relieve indigestion, act as a mild natural laxative, reduce constipation, and promote regular bowel movements.
- Supplies essential vitamins and minerals: Rich in vitamins A, B, D, folic acid, chlorophyll, and other nutrients that support overall health, red blood cell production, and immunity.
- May aid in parasite expulsion: Instinctual grass-eating can increase gut contractions to help remove intestinal parasites (a holdover from wild ancestors).
- Freshens breath: Chlorophyll in the grass has natural deodorizing properties that can help reduce bad breath.
- Provides mental stimulation and enrichment: It satisfies the urge to graze, prevents boredom, discourages chewing on toxic houseplants, and offers a safe, engaging activity for indoor cats.
It is not the same as catnip (an herb from the mint family that causes a euphoric reaction in many cats). Cat grass has no intoxicating effect.Offer cat grass in moderation as a supplement or treat, and supervise initially to ensure it agrees with your cat.
