Lemongrass Plant For Haru

 

I've been wanting to buy cat grass for Haru from Shopee or Lazada. But lazy me just won't have the time to plant these grass from seeds, water it and tend to it everyday.  So I went to a nursery at our hood today and got a pot of lemongrass at RM6 a pot.

Lemongrass has a catnip-like effect on most cats. Whether potted indoors or planted in an outdoor garden, a nibble-friendly patch of lemongrass is a safe cat treat. Lemongrass essential oil, however, can be toxic to felines.



Initially Haru didn't know what to do with the lemongrass plant except to sniff it. Sherilyn cut a teeny bit of leaf and taught Haru to chew on it.  Moments later she was nibbling on the leaves from the pot.  

Thankfully Haru didn't get the Zoomies after nibbling on the leaves.  In fact, she's been very good today, except for the fact that she climbed up the kitchen counter top, where the microwave oven is to look for food! 

Haru gets very excited each time she hears the sound of the microwave door opening and the sounds of the buttons being pressed as these are the sounds she hears whenever we heat up pork or chicken (her favorite food) for her.   It was already her supper time and her way of telling us that she's hungry is by climbing up the counter top.  Someone wasn't happy when she saw it 😂
