Anything particular to know about cat tails. All I could find is they are edible and no medicinal properties. Our condo is on the edge of town and our dogs like to use the weeds to poop which is handy cause we don't have to clean it up then. Just a bit of a walk and sometimes mushy ground. Well they mowed most of our weeds and cut a path over the marshy area right between a forest of cat tails. I know they don't bother to spray anything down there. 1 cat tail would feed the guinea pigs or rabbits for the day. I sliced one off with my pocket knife while the dogs were out today and offered a leaf to one cage of guinea pigs. We'll see if the plant wilts completely overnight or is stable enough I can store a days' worth. There's months worth out there with the other stuff we give them and the fact I can start making off with corn stalks in the same manner about now and no one would notice a few missing with all the deer around.
