Why does a cat want to eat grass? Although cats are known carnivores, they do seem to crave a blade or two of green lush grass now and again. Even wild cats have been noticed nibbling blades of grass. There's no common nutritional need or explanation for this behavior, although some experts suspect that cats are attracted to the high-fiber and moisture content of grass. Maybe (it is thought by some) this act furnishes the balance of nutrients needed for proper health. Whatever it s purpose, "grazing" seems to be a natural feline behavior.

Cats crave the nutrients and taste of grass. It is very good for his or her health, too. You can grow a small patch of grass inside your home and then your cat can have it available any time of the day, no matter if it’s raining or snowing outside. Can you just imagine the field day that your cat would have if you grew it some fresh grass? Talk about pampering your cat!

To grow it at home, you will want to buy some organic hard wheat berries at a health food store. You can also sometimes find pre mixed batches at your locate pet supply store. The supplies are very inexpensive, and the results are well worth it!

Basically, you will need to soak the berries overnight in water. Then you need to drain the berries. (It is recommended to use a paper towel for this.) Use a ceramic bowel to place about one inch of soil and then plant the berries. (You use about one tablespoon of berries for each batch)

Spray the soil with some water. After that, cover the layer of berries and soil mixture with about ¼ inch of peat moss, or some more soil. Once finished, place the container in a well light area. You’ll want to keep the mixture moist and avoid over watering, or this will cause mildew. In about 7-10 days, the grass will be ready for your furry friend! Your cat can eat on it as it likes, he or she will get full eventually and will not overstuff him or herself with grass. If you don’t have to grow it yourself, and have an ample supply of it outside your front door, let your cat out a few times a week to soak it up. You cat may not want to eat the grass; some simply like to touch it and roll around in it. Some cats even like to roll around in the dirt.
