    Luxie Chilling with Her Cat Grass

    LAST UPDATED: January 20, 2019 PUBLISHED: May 26, 2017 By Pam Greer 21 Comments As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

    A few photos of our calico cat, Luxie, by her cat grass.  Post may contain affiliate links, full disclosure on sidebar.

    Calico cat with her cat grass

    One of Luxie's favorite jobs during the day is to lay on the rug by her cat grass.  It's a task she takes very seriously!  Do you grow cat grass for your inside cats?   It's my understanding that cat grass helps in digestion and may help with hairballs.  I know that my outside cats munch on grass all the time, so I did some research, and started growing some for Luxie.  I found this one on Amazon that even comes with an adorable cat planter, which is probably going in my cart just as soon as I finish this post!

    Luxie and her cat grass

    She loves her cat grass.  After waking in the morning, she dashes ahead of me down the stairs and has a quick nibble on the grass before wandering into the kitchen for breakfast.  She goes back to the grass several times a day.  I keep a perpetual loop of cat grass growing.  I have two pots and once one is done, the other one is ready.  I take the old pot, toss the grass and dirt on my flower beds to decompose and start another pot.  Easy peasy.

    For today's artsy photo, I again used the Topaz Labs plugin.

      How hard is it to grow/maintain? I'm not the best person with houseplants. I think it would really help Arya. She has a lot of issues which I think are due to hairballs. I love the one you shared from Amazon.

      Goodness, Lexie is a beautiful kitty. She looks very content with her cat grass. My kitties like it when I grow cat grass, too.

      Awwww, you are such a beautiful kitty. You are also lucky to have kitty grass inside your house. M has htought about growing some for me, but I hjave no toothies to chew the cat grass with, so she's not sure it would work for me.

      Each time I see a cat enjoying some grass I wish that I'd thought of marketing it. My cats loved grass. ☺

      How nice that Luxie has her very own stash of cat grass and doesn't have to forage for it.

      We love cat grass too but never get any because some cat around here (Wally!) likes to make a mess of it.

      A most excellent result, from the cat grass and the Topaz plug in. Luxie always looks a real treat.

      I used to grow cat grass for our cats but got out of the habit. You remind me that I should start doing it again, because they did enjoy it. Luxie is beautiful!
