Training a cat around the plants

plants.

Wheat, oat grass, catnip, or heather are just some of the plants that you
can grow a garden for kitty indoors or outdoors. Going along with growing
some grass in your house, it would be a good idea to find a long potting
box so that your cat can crawl up into the grass and lay in it. There are a
lot of plants, bushes, and even grass that are not good for your cat. Some
of the plants and bushes have poisons chemical in the plant, which will
make your cat very ill or even death. With growing, some of the grass and
plants recommended for your cat this will save the other plants from gnawed
on and dirt spread around.

Growing catnip in the house or outside will give your cat the pleasure that
you are looking for. Catnip is from the mint family and cats do love the
smell and to nibble on it.
When growing catnip you will want to pinch off the tops of the blades of
grass from the catnip once it is high enough, this is to help the plant to
bush out. While the plant is growing indoors, you will want to keep it from
kitty too much catnip and kitty will be immune from catnip.

hairballs to digest out of their system. Grass or plants serve as self-
medicating to the cat
