I recently went and bought the SmartyKat Sweet Greens cat grass kit from Wal-Mart because I have two very pampered, very beloved cats who are always trying to eat the greenery in my house. I have this lovely creeping vine plant that I’ve had for over two years and although I place this plant on the highest bookshelf in the living room, my cats will always find a way to get up there and then start gnawing at the poor plant. I have caught them bite through the thick vines that grow almost half way down the bookshelf and I am grieved that this marvelous plant is always so ruthlessly cut down by my furry attackers. But I really can’t begrudge them too much because after all they are indoor cats and I know that indoor cats sometimes needs grass or some kind of greens in order to stay as healthy as possible. I try to give them that through their dry food, selecting the indoor cat dry food, but after reading a very good article by a vet, I realized that cats are truly carnivores and as
such, they really require wet cat food
as that is the main way they can get water as they don’t have a very strong thirst indicator.
Yet, I still believe that all animals can benefit from eating some sort of vegetation due to the fact that there are a lot healthy vitamins to be gotten from plants. So that is why I went and got this grass kit. Mostly to save my plant, but also because I felt that they really needed this grass every now and then. This is a very interesting kit because it comes with everything you need. I has oat seeds that are ready to be planted straight into the dark soil that comes in a round container. You moisten the dirt after planting in the seeds and then loosely cover it with the lid. Then you must place it in a dark and cool place (we used our pantry closet) and then once the grass starts to grow, take off the lid and leave it in a sunny part of the house. Well, the first day, I was very disappointed because nothing was growing and I honestly thought that I had been ripped off by the company. But ...
