Catnip

[verna davies]

Isn't it wonderful what a catnip plant can achieve. A trio of comatosed cats.

This was done by my grand daughter. I don't like the music she picked, not very jolly.

1CatOverTheLine . Moo Shu looks sooooo content.
mightyboosh . Looks like catnip has had the opposite effect on your cat. Not letting go of that toy

I always thought it wound all cats up.

mightyboosh . I might try it myself and see what happens.

C'est Moi usually can't even wait for me to get the catnip out of the can, then she likes to roll around on the floor in it.

Jules, our (old and wise) neighbour's cat, inspecting the catmint plants in my garden.
He visits us on a regular basis for a catnip trip.

So, what is it with catnip? As I said above, I thought it made all cats hyper. It seems not from the above comments.
V verna davies Could a poll be added to this thread at this stage asking if catnip makes their cats hyper or comatose?

Both Olive and Gohan get really hyper / playful on catnip. Trin never seemed too interested, but he does seem pretty mellow when loving on one of those Yowww Catnip bananas.

I don't know how to start a poll but maybe someone on this thread can
I would be interested to know too.

I still remember how Belle and Beau reacted to catnip. Belle was unaffected. Beau, I swear, got stoned off the stuff. He'd have this glassy-eyed look, and would be mellow for quite a while.

Charlie and Selene both get hyper, though

My two cats get hyper on cat nip and start running around like maniacs.

I generally buy my cats a "salad" from the pet store every couple months or so. I think it's meant to be grown on a windowsill and doled out periodically. Well, the half-life of a potted plant is a few hours around my house, so I just let them have the pot of catnip all at once.

It usually takes 10-15 minutes for them to consume the whole thing, after which they roll around on the kitchen floor trilling for another 15 minutes or so, then go about their merry way. No hyperactivity at all. I just throw the remains in the compost.
