Without actual code, it is difficult to figure out what the real problem is. Anyhow, did you check the below animation example?
http://matplotlib.sourceforge.net/examples/animation/animation_blit_gtk.html In the example, the grid is static (i.e., not animated). If what you want is to have the grid animated, then an explicit draw_artist call is required (note that grid is drawn by axis).
