    I saw in the store today some grass you can grow for your cat. Now I have a weird story about that kind of thing but I am sure it is a coincidence. Maybe.

    Years ago I had a cat who was about 6 years old. One day we bought some of this grass and let her have some. The next morning I found her curled up behind the couch, she

    Since then I have never ever even thought about buying it and I won't for any other cat I ever have.

    I don't know, maybe it was a coincidence or do you think it could have been dangerous for her?

    Part of your post is missing but I'm assuming she passed away? That's terribly sad, and I'm sorry you went through that. :(
    Do you happen to know what kind of grass it was? It's possible the grass did it, especially if it was weirdly toxic, but there could have been other factors. She could have been sick with something else and you didn't know, or even ingested something else besides the grass that hurt her.

    If CinnamonKiss is right in what your post was supposed to mean, I am truly sorry! That's a terrible thing to have happen.

    Sibyl likes to eat grass, it helps her digestion, but I don't let her eat too much at a time. I would hesitate to buy some to grow specifically for my cats, though. It sounds a little sketchy.

    What kind of grass was it anyway? I have only ever seen catnip being grown and sold for cats like that....not regular grass to just eat away at. :(

    I hope the missing part of your post isn't saying your cat passed away, but if it is then I'm sorry to hear it. What kind of grass was it? I have never heard of something like this happening.

    I saw this too! I got Cat Grass. Its labeled as a grass that indoor cats will like to play with and smell, even chew. I currently have it in my kitchen for my guys, now that you say this I have noticed something weird.

    Its called Cat Grass for everyone asking.

    Bandit has been MEGA constipated / unhappy since the Grass got put down on the ground for them. He even did his business in the shower, which is totally unlike him unless he is having an IBD flair up. His food hasn't changed or anything, the only thing new is the grass!
