What cat grass microgreens taste like

This is the one product here that is not a garnish. Cat grass is young cereal grass grown in a tray — the same crop people juice as wheatgrass. Cats chew it because it is what they would find outdoors, and having a tray in the house tends to stop them working on your houseplants.

Questions about cat grass

Is cat grass the same as wheatgrass?

Same crop, different purpose. Both are young cereal grass grown in a tray. We sell it as a living tray so it keeps growing while your cat works on it. If you juice wheatgrass, this is the same thing.

How long does a cat grass tray last?

Usually a couple of weeks with a determined cat, longer with a casual one. Water into the base of the tray rather than over the blades and keep it out of direct sun. When it stops recovering from being chewed, start a new one.

Is it safe for cats?

Cereal grass is a normal thing for cats to chew and we grow it without pesticides or herbicides. As with any change to what your animal eats, if your cat has a health condition, check with your vet first.
