Is eating grass normal or abnormal for your pet ??

Eating grass can help cats to get rid of fur balls Sometimes, fur balls that don't get vomited up end up passing through the digestive system instead, and the extra fibre from the grass can help to aid this process.

My cats usually eat a bit of grass and then throw up huge fur balls, and they don't touch grass otherwise, so I trust that they know what they are doing!! I might be a little concerned if they were eating it all the time and going off their dry/wet food, but as your vet said: cats eating grass occasionally is normal.
