Every year I say don't get Easter grass and every year it winds up in the house and Crystal winds up eating some. I threw it all away yesterday, so I was relieved that none of the kitties ate any.
Well, Ijust found Crystal chewing on a clump of it that was under a chair!
I picked upthe clump and there was a strand hanging out of her mouth so I got that and gave her some hairball goo.
She just tried to throw up but just liquid came out.
This is going to have me nervous for awhile because I just don't know if she swallowed any.

Thanks! I think she's ok. I gave her more hairball stuff last night and she seems ok today. Though she did hack up a hairball on my bed!

The problem with easter grass and cats is the grass is plastic therefore it is attractive to cats but it causes obstructions, and can also cut the cat internally depending on how much was swallowed.
