About Catnip
Avena sativa
Do you want to keep your cats from eating potentially harmful houseplants, or coarse, outdoor grass that sticks to the back of their tongues and might contain pesticides? Because it's grown indoors, fibrous cat grass can be served fresh, year-round to assist your cat with digestion, and may help prevent furballs. Grass is ready for cats to eat when it is 2"-4" high; place near their water or food bowl for only a few minutes so that they don't binge. Feed for a few minutes at a time on a regular basis to get your kitty's tummy used to it, allowing absorption of all the nutrients. Great for dogs, too!

That's awesome that your Cat Grass Seeds sprouted so quickly! Fast germination is always exciting to see. Don't worry if your kitty isn't diving into them right away - some cats take a little time to discover their new treat, and others just prefer to nibble here and there. The grass will keep growing fresh for your feline friend to enjoy whenever the mood strikes! Keep on growing 🌻️

- Lois O.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1/14/26my cats like your "Cat Grass", but they LOVED your no-longer-available "Cat Grass Mix"
This single variety cat grass (oats) germinates well, grows well, & my cats enjoy it. But they would almost inhale your old "Cat Grass Mix" (oats, wheat & barley). Will you be bringing back the mix ?
Thank You
Which best describes you as a gardener? IntermediateBIBotanical Interests1/19/26Hey Lois,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with our Cat Grass Seeds and for giving us 5 stars! We're thrilled to hear that your cats enjoy the single variety oats and that it's germinating and growing well for you.
We totally understand your cats' preference for the old Cat Grass Mix - that blend of oats, wheat and barley was definitely a hit with many feline friends! While we don't have any immediate plans to bring back that specific mix, we really appreciate you letting us know how much your cats loved it. Customer feedback like yours is incredibly valuable to us.
Thank you for being such a wonderful customer and for sharing your growing success with us. Keep on growing 🌻️
