What do you do when your cat refuses to eat grass

Pass.

I always remember when we first had Badger and he used to peee in the same spot on the lawn, eventually that spot went bare, I threw a couple of handfuls of the CP grass which is Bananasfoot (see next message) grass, a big mistake it is more course than lawn grass and seems to grow very quickly. At least I can pick some for the cats and place a bit fresh in cat dishes. Also if cats come into the garden they seem to make for that spot.

Bananasfoot (see next message)  grass seems to be a flavour that many cats like. It is a natural medicine for relieving bile and sourness and its action, as an emetic,  often means the of inducing the vomiting of hairballs

I wouldn't worry about it.  Jaffa has never eaten grass in his life - just never been interested.  Magpie used to love it though and he had problems with hairballs so it was like he knew it was good for him  ;D  Grass is useful for them but if they don't want it fair enough.

I believe I am not interested to know whether Vivisection produces results that are profitable to the human race or doesn't. To know that the results are profitable to the race would not remove my hostility to it.  Mark Twain

As most of us know it is a good idea for cats to have grass, It aids their digestion and can help to cats to cough up furballs (nice). Free grass seed for plant pots is available if you send a SAE to their HQ.
