Description

My wife snapped this shot of our cat doing one of the things she loves the most... eating grass. I don't know why cats do it. All the cats I have ever had as pets have been crazy about eating grass. It makes them sick too. We do our best to stop her from doing it and getting sick, but when our heads are turned, off she goes for a quick bite! Thank you all for your kind comments and support. This really is a great place full of wonderful people! -Breyden-

Very sweet image! My dogs eat grass all the time. I have asked the vet about it. He said that it was some nutrient lacking in their diet but I cannot figure out what it is as they are healthy and lively and happy dogs!!! So dear kitty... have your salad!!! You want dressing with that? :)

Cats need grass for their good health dear friend. My cats are indoor cats so don't get access to the outdoor stuff, so I grow grass for them (you can buy it from pet shops too), and it is in pots in their cattery play pen outside, and also in my home. They do eat the grass but are never sick, although if they were I would not worry, as the grass eating does aid their digestion. My dogs also love to eat grass, and it has all sorts of aid for them. I noticed too when they are hot they will eat it, so perhaps it will help cool their whole system down too. Don't worry about the grass eating it is truly beneficial to both cats and dogs, and nothing to worry about honestly. I speak from lots of years of experience with many dogs (I bred them for 30 years) and also cats, apart from living with them all my life, I also was a Veterinary Nurse :o) You could try changing the diet if your cat is doing this to excess, just in case the food is too rich for him, but otherwise do not worry. Now to your image, your wife must have been lying on her belly for this one, it is a great POV, and fabulous shot of your gorgeous cat doing one of the things that they love/need to do. hope you are well today, take care, hugs Jane xx

I buy those little pots of wheat grass in the grocery store for my cats, they love it. And my dog also likes to graze on grass out on our walks, but there's one spot only that she does it -- very odd, she'll spend a very long time there nibbling on the grass all along the back verge. Great evidence capture !
