Cat and Grass?

Cat Oat Grass and Cat Wheat Grass are cereal grasses. The oat grass is widely cultivated for its edible seeds. Our popular breakfast oat cereals and wheat cereals are made from the seeds of these plants! The wheat grass is also widely cultivated for its commercially important grain. Athletes and other health conscious people have made juicing the wheat grass very popular. They drink the wheat juice for its high concentrated levels of vitamins and minerals. However, there is yet no scientific proof that a cat is capable of extracting nutrients from ingesting plants, while there is extensive proof that they are purely carnivorous and derive all of their necessary vitamins from eating meat.





When the oat seed or wheat seed is planted it produces beautiful, healthy green blades rich in chlorophyll (a natural breath freshener), antioxidants (helps fights cancer), vitamins, minerals and amino acids. While this may be healthy for humans, it is not known or proven whether it has any benefit for cats. It is also known that certain plant products can be very harmful to cats; in the case of cat grass, it may be better for a cat to avoid eating mature cat grass, because the oats it produces can damage their digestive tract. Immature cat grass seems to pose no harmful effects.





Among the possible explanations for why cats enjoy eating grass, here are a few that are commonly postulated, but as yet unproven (except perhaps for the fourth one):

1.) Aids in a healthy digestion, and helps move hairballs along. Instead of coughing up the hairball, the hairball is more likely to be passed through your cat's digestive system.

2.) Great source of fiber (roughage) in your cat's diet.

3.) Contains chlorophyll. Chlorophyll is a natural substance that makes grass green and acts as a natural breath freshener for your cat.

4.) Cat Oat Grass and Cat Wheat Grass taste great to your cat.

Do cat really like fish?

This cat was sitting patiently behind the fisherman. But do cat really like fish. Actually, cats were originated in desert and normally, they eat small birds, rodents, sometimes rabbits. They do not actually get the fish in the desert. Why cat and fish come to be related. That occurred since the fishery industry has successfully produce large quantities of fish, the cheap protein source at that time and the pet food company then advertised that cat loves fish. Since then, cat and fish are linked together and normally, they love fish. :)

How much food do a cat need?

It depends on the age and type of food. For an adult cat, 85 gm per day of complete dry food only is enough for a moderate size cat (5 kg). Provide your cat with fresh water, if you feed them with dry food only. Cats do require different amounts of nutrients to humans, so do not feed them with what you have.
