can she eat grass from my front yard?

[chancellor91]

she really likes it, no fertilizer for months, can she munch on it?

I actually wouldn't chance it because the fertilizer goes down into the ground so even though you are taking the grass from the top, the fertilizer can still be around the roots.

I didn't know that about fertilizer. I pick clovers for Duke out of my yard and let him eat those on occasion.

Chemicals from fertilizers and insect control can perpetuate in the soils for as long as 7 years.
Nope, don't take that chance.

Thanks guys, all though we don't fertilize (not in years) I'll get my clovers elsewhere.

Maby you don't but maby 1 of your neighbors has!

OK so then what I am getting from what everyone is saying is that don't use anything from the yard at all. Can the fertilizer from a neighbor really affect my yard too? Or is it just that everyone is being extra cautious? What about buying the grass in seed form that is sold for cats, can they eat that? I think it is wheat grass......

Thanks,
