KittyLawn, real grass for cats
I've been reviewing a lot of grass products lately and KittyLawn is one of them. This carpet of real grass is meant to bring your cats a taste of the outdoors - think of it as the backyard in a box! It is hydroponic grass grown at a farm in California without pesticides or toxins so if kitty decides to taste it, it won't hurt them - but it is meant for lounging!Check it out here: https://amzn.to/3IUKHVh#CatTalkRadio #MollyDeVoss #DeweyVaughn #VoiceAmerica #Variety #Education #Training #Cats #Int
