So what's the connection with cats? Why not gerbil or hamster grass?

Oh no! I only posted it for a laugh; now I really want to know.

gerbils and hamsters don't need grass in their diets.

Cats chew grass - I don't think it's really clear why, may be something
to do with digestion - often seems to stimulate them to regurgitate
furballs.

If they don't have grass available, then they will often turn to
houseplants instead.

So it's suggested that indoor cats should have a tray of grass
available.
