Somehow I never got around to planting cat grass at the new casa az. Well, it turns out that I not only have a new asparagus lover, but the Lunatic seems intent on getting her greens if I don’t make them readily available. Remember when I removed the “protective” mesh from the balconies because it just served to give her a foothold for climbing? It seemed after that she was content to just sit outside but about a month ago I looked up from my computer screen to see her doing a somewhat wobbly balancing act on the railing! Since then it became an obsession to climb up the squiggly bits on the railings, which was driving me to distraction, and then I realised it was to get at – and much on – the plants there. So I went out and got some cat grass seed and grew it upstairs on the terraza. Today I put it out for her and, as you can see, she loves it. Loki took a brief interest in it too, but it’s clear that Luna takes after Azar when it comes to wanting her veg. And so I hope that this is going to keep her from scaling the railings to get her daily fix. Fingers crossed!

My dog likes to eat grass, just the plain, by the side of the path stuff. He’s very delicate about it, picking certain blades & leaving others. He doesn’t appear to do it in a bid to make himself sick, which I think is the usual reason, he genuinely seems to enjoy it. To the extent that sometimes, when out for a walk, I have to tell him it’s not an all-you-can-eat buffet!

So far Luna hasn’t thrown up, and it has at least cut down on her desire to climb the railings, though I still find her up there now and then. Waiting for the next batch of grass to sprout so I can put a planter of it on the other pair of balconies.

Wonderful photos! My cats eat grass in the backyard, then come inside to throw up. Lovely!
