Customer Reviews

Seemed like a good idea.
Good idea but these problems:



1. Takes several days (for me approx. 3-5)to grow so there will always be a period of time where there is no grass, I was required to continue to go to the local pet store for grass.



2. Produces a very small amount of grass. Two of these cartridges cost about $5.29 not including shipping. I can buy local catgrass for the same price with about 92% more surface area. Meaning that it reduces the amount of grass available to your cat by 92%.



3. Turns the water filthy very quickly. If you use this product you should also invest in their fountain filter.



I really had hoped this would be a great idea, and may in the future, but they still have some problems to work out.


I must recommend you try their fountain, my cats love it and drink more water which we all know is healthier. That product is a clear winner.Drinkwell Pet Fountain for Cats

Beats the dirt method
I got one of these for my 5 cats, who love their drinkwell fountain, and they now love the cat grass addition. It didn't last really long - just a few weeks before they'd eaten it all and it stopped growing. The roots take over about half the bowl, but the cats didn't seem to mind. I love this for the wintertime when the cat grass I grow outside dies for the year.

works well, for a short time, with much extra cleaning
The good: They were easy to start, snapping easily onto the adapter that came with the Drinkwell Platinum fountain, and grew quite quickly. My cats enjoyed munching on the grass and could not simply pull it out by the roots like they sometimes do with grass planted in soil.

The not-so-good: The white roots that grow out the bottom of the seed pod have to be trimmed constantly. The grass grows abundantly for a short while then begins to die, even with regular care (fresh water, occasional trimming of grass). Worst, the entire fountain requires cleaning every few days or the water becomes cloudy and the fountain lined with slime - which certainly cannot be healthy for the cats. In addition, when using the product, I began to find greenish scum in the hard-to-reach corners of the reservoir. It took thorough soaking and scrubbing to remove and hasn't returned since discontinuing use of the seed pods.

Normally, with my two boys frequenting the water fountain daily, it requires cleaning every couple weeks, weekly at most if they are shedding more. I use only distilled water, by the way. To sum, I found the product to be too much work for too little enjoyment. I recommend keeping your pets' foliage separate from their water.
