We have two Burman cats, both very much loved, but they keep eating grass
and bringing back bile etc.  This has been happening more ferequently of
late - almost every day - though they appear healthy and very lively.

Can anybody comment on the frequency, is it too frequent, or is this fairly
normal.  Both cats are about 10 years old.
Any help much appreciated.

It is my understanding that cats eat grass to try to relieve an upset
stomach.  You might want to look in to what cat food(s) you're giving them.
Royal Canin makes several kinds for different breeds of cats.  I don't know
which one could work best for Birmans, but a breeder probably would know.

My cats with medium/long hair often do this before successfully
hacking up a hairball.  For some reason, they are shedding now, though
it is seriously the wrong season.
