What herbs do cats like?

Plants from this list are attractive to members of the cat family.

Schisandra

Although cats do not tolerate citrus smells, they are delighted with this herb with its characteristic lemon aroma. In addition, lemongrass has practical benefits - it helps the body get rid of excess fluid and has an anti-inflammatory, antiseptic and calming effect.

Parsley

Another plant that can be beneficial for cats and which they eat with gusto. However, not everyone can manage to grow parsley in a pot, so it would be logical to leave some greenery within reach of your cat.

Sprouted oats and wheat

If you notice that your cat sniffs sprouts with pleasure, don’t be surprised: she likes not only their smell, but also their taste. What is important is that sprouted oats and wheat contain many useful substances, and they can also improve digestion.


Just in case, let us make a reservation: an animal’s reaction to the smell of a particular plant largely depends on its individual characteristics.
