  I think limited alfalfa is okay. I know there are times when Fel is being picky about hay, so I get him an alfalfa cube to get him back in the mood to crunch hay again.

  Well, it says limited alfalfa (which is not clear) and a small treat of oat groats I think would be fine.

  I have seen that before! I really like this chart, it makes it easy to see what should be the focus of a good diet (hay and veggies).

  Groats are whole grains with the hulls removed. The oat groats are much harder than rolled oats to chew. Some people eat them soaked and cooked as a porridge soup, it’s good as a winter breakfast with cinnamon sugar.
  I printed the chart and pinned it up. It’s a good reminder to check amounts to feed.

  well, I do… but other people may make faces at you if you serve it up to them. It’s an “Olde World” thing.
