FAQs

Are these plants safe for all cats?

Yes, Hordeum grass is safe for cats and is specifically cultivated as a pet-friendly enrichment item.

Do I need to replant them into larger pots?

No, they are provided in 12cm pots that are sufficient for the lifespan of the grass.

How often should I water the grass?

Check the soil daily; keep it moist to the touch, similar to how you would care for a standard houseplant.

Can I keep these plants outdoors?

They are specifically cultivated for indoor use to ensure safety and ideal growth conditions.

Why does my cat vomit after eating the grass?

It is common for cats to ingest grass to help aid digestion or trigger vomiting to clear hairballs; however, consult a vet if you notice excessive distress.

How long will each plant last?

Longevity varies based on how frequently your cat grazes on the grass and how well it is maintained with water and light.

Troubleshooting

Grass turning brown at the tips

This often indicates a need for more consistent watering or higher humidity; try moving the plant to a spot with indirect sunlight.

Plant looks sparse after heavy grazing

Rotate the plant with the second pot in the pack to allow the first one time to recover and regrow.

Soil appears dry or compacted

Water the plant from the bottom by placing the pot in a shallow dish of water for 15 minutes to allow the soil to soak up moisture.

Pros and Cons

  • No germination waiting period
  • Pre-potted and ready to use upon delivery
  • Provides essential fiber for digestive health

  • Requires ongoing watering to keep fresh

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Upon arrival, carefully remove the packaging and place the pots on a water-resistant surface. These plants do not require complex assembly. To keep the grass healthy, keep the soil consistently moist but not waterlogged. Place the plants in a location with plenty of natural daylight, avoiding harsh, direct midday sun which may scorch the blades. If the grass begins to look tired, trimming the blades down slightly can encourage fresh regrowth. Always ensure the pot is placed securely so it cannot be tipped over during enthusiastic grazing sessions.
