BENEFITS OF CAT GRASS FOR CATS AND HOW TO GROW IT

 What is cat grass? Cat grass is grass which consists of a number
of different types of grass. The two main ones are
1)     
Dactylitis
Glomerata
2)     
Avena
Sativa
Many places are now carrying cat grass or you can grow it
  yourself.
Why do cats eat grass? There are a number of reasons. First of
all I want to mention that eating grass is not a bad thing. The reasons
are:
1)     
It acts as 
natural laxative when your
cat needs a little help with the fur that travelled deep into their digestive
tract to break down and pass
2)     
Eating grass also helps to
bring up hair balls
3)     
Cat grass also help to
provide certain nutrients and vitamins and your cat sometimes likes to
nibble.
4)     
Cat grass contains folic acid
that assists in the production of hemoglobin which is a protein that moves
oxygen in the blood
