Great Pyrenees

cat grass

In the photo above, my sister is growing cat grass for her cat. I thought that was cute.

For another animal story, daughter L has a friend whose family owns a Pyrenean Mountain Dog, a very large breed of dog. It is 9 years old now, quite old. The friend's mother decided to get a baby Pyrenee last year, thinking ahead to the time when the older dog will pass. The younger dog bounces around all over the place and stresses the older dog. In fact the older dog had an ACL tear trying to keep up with the younger dog. Aren't they just like people trying to get along with each other?

I used to grow cat grass for my cat, too, but she still preferred nibbling the flowers! Hugs, Valerie

My mom threw that idea out once with our first family dog, my brother said the new dog would annoy him to death. So we waited until he passed

I grow cat grass regularly. My tabby eats it all the time. It helps with her digestion.

pups can certainly be a nuisance for older pets,, makes you wonder what the older pet is thinking, probably that the pup is cute but a pain in the butt!!! lol,,,most likely a tight bond will form though,, I've seen this happen many times, but its true pups can be rough on older pets, this happens with cats as well, our daughter got a kitten to add to their family and she already had a 18 yearold cat,, poor old guy hated that kitten at first but now love each other but the kitten pestered him terribly, they had to separate them part of the day lol,, what we do for our pets lol,,,

cat grass - ....that stuff is expensive at staters - about 5 dollars for a little bit - i've thought about growing some and I should because i know she really went for it.

I hate that the older dog is stressing over the younger one being there. My dog was 10 when I got him a playmate (his own pet), I got him a kitten (12 wks old) and it was the best thing I ever did. Just funny how pets do in cases like a new pet being brought in. Hoping that babe don't stress to much.

That's sweet that she's growing grass for her kitty. I hope the two dogs come together more gently as time progresses.

Never having owned a cat I'd not heard of cat grass before!

I do so hope the two dogs get along together calmly, for all concerned.

All the best Jan

Oh, dear. The new kitten, Hooper, has been a hoot around here!
