Although some people may roll their eyes when they think of cats needing or even enjoying “salad,” there is ample evidence that cats love green stuff. Grass helps cats dislodge hairballs, which is why you can often catch them chewing on it in the yard. It also makes their coats shinier and can reduce bad breath, at least according to the companies that tout it. In addition to chlorophyll and antioxidants, wheatgrass contains enzymes, minerals, amino acids and vitamins A, B, C, E and K, according to the Texas A&M University website. Because cats are true carnivores, however, some doubt exists among veterinarians as to whether they actually require the nutrients or benefit from the hairball-dislodging effect.
What You’ll Need:
• Coffee filter (Amazon ) or paper towel (Unbleached) (Amazon )
• Glass bowl/jar (Amazon )
• Organic oat (Amazon ) or wheat (Amazon) grass seeds

2. Add a thin layer of seeds on top of the paper towel. If you’d like to speed up the process, pre-soak the seeds in water overnight. Oat (Amazon ), Wheat (Amazon)
3. Fill the jar with water up to the paper towel. Keep water at this level even while your grass is growing. (Amazon )
