Product Information

Full details

Thompson & Morgan Cat Grass Seeds are designed for cat owners seeking a safe, nutritious, and easily accessible fresh grass treat for their pets, while also offering a deterrent against nibbling houseplants. These hardy perennial seeds grow rapidly, providing a consistent supply of vitamin and fiber-rich grass that aids digestion and helps with hairball elimination. The primary caveat is that it requires regular sowing to ensure a continuous supply, as it is an annual plant that will eventually die back.

FAQs

How often should I sow new seeds?

To ensure a continuous supply of fresh grass, it is recommended to sow new seeds every 2 to 3 weeks, staggered to provide ongoing availability.

Can I grow this indoors all year round?

Yes, Thompson & Morgan Cat Grass Seeds are ideal for indoor cultivation in pots or trays and can be grown throughout the year, provided they receive adequate light.

How tall does the grass get?

The cat grass typically reaches a height of 15cm (6 inches) within approximately 6 weeks of sowing.

What makes this grass good for my cat's digestion?

The grass is rich in fiber, and the natural oil content in its stems aids in digestion and assists with the elimination of hairballs.

Will my cat stop eating my houseplants if I grow this?

This cat grass provides a safe and appealing alternative, which can help divert your cat's attention from potentially harmful houseplants.

What should I do if my cat doesn't like grazing the long grass?

If your cat seems hesitant to graze, you can trim the grass with scissors to a shorter length that might be more appealing.

Can I use any type of soil to grow the cat grass?

It is best to use a standard seed compost or a good quality potting soil for optimal growth. Avoid using garden soil directly in containers as it can become compacted.

Troubleshooting

Seeds are not germinating

Ensure seeds are covered with the correct depth of soil, the soil is kept consistently moist, and the temperature is suitable for germination. Try a different location if light or drafts are an issue.

Grass is growing slowly or weakly

Check for adequate light exposure. Ensure the soil is not too compacted and has been watered sufficiently. Avoid extreme temperatures.

Mold or fungus appears on the soil

This often indicates overwatering or poor air circulation. Allow the soil surface to dry slightly between waterings and ensure there is some airflow around the container.

Cat is not interested in the grass

Try trimming the grass to a shorter length, as some cats prefer this. Ensure the grass is fresh and healthy, not wilted or discolored.
