Cat Grass Seeds

 

Dactylis glomerata is a fast-growing, nutritious grass that is perfect for your feline friends to enjoy.

 

The Latin name Dactylis comes from the Greek word for "finger," referring to the grass's finger-like seed heads. This easy-to-grow grass provides cats with a natural source of fibre, aiding digestion and helping to reduce hairball formation. It also offers a healthy alternative to houseplants that cats may nibble on.

 

Reaching a height of 20-30 cm, Cat Grass grows quickly and can be harvested multiple times throughout its growing season. It thrives in well-drained soil and requires a sunny or partially shaded location. The grass can be grown in containers, pots, or even trays, making it a great addition to your home, allowing your cat to nibble on a fresh, safe snack.

 

Cat Grass is a natural, easy-to-grow treat that helps improve your pet’s health and well-being. Perfect for growing indoors, it provides a safe alternative for cats who love to chew on plants.

Sowing Instructions

 

Sow seeds directly into containers or trays filled with well-drained, moist compost from March to September. Lightly scatter seeds on the surface and gently press them into the soil, but do not cover, as they require light to germinate. Keep the soil moist and place the container in a warm, sunny location.

 

Water regularly to maintain moisture, and trim the grass to keep it fresh for your cat to enjoy. Harvest the grass when it reaches 20-30 cm tall, cutting it back to encourage new growth.

 

Cat Grass is an ideal, pet-friendly addition to your indoor garden, providing a healthy snack for your cat and a natural way to support their digestive health.
