How much catnip is too much ?

He keeps asking for it. He had three big handfuls of the dreamies catnip the other day. I don't want him to get too high

Can they get addicted to it ?

I hate giving mine catnip, they get so obviously high it makes me feel like their dealer.

ChangedmyMindNotUsingMyRealName · 10/10/2024 22:19

I know, I don't usually give it to them, but the shop messed up last time and sent me loads of it instead of their usual treats, and there's nothing else left, and he keeps mewing at me for them

I didn’t know there were catnip dreamies! I’ll be buying some for our cat, he’s doing 6 weeks of cage rest for a fractured pelvis and they might help to relieve his hours of boredom.

I am kind of feeling like his dealer right now. I'm saying come on boy, you've had enough, then going ok just one more dose tonight

That's a good reason for catnip

I want to get a catnip mouse, I just hate giving drugs ! It's weird. As well, I feel sorry for them, being housecats. They deserve better lives. But I don't think drugs is the answer. Now and then, sure

You’re gonna turn them into nip heads.

I think you need to take a look at Father of the Pride to avoid too much getting hopped up.

I gave mine a stuffed catnip carrot. It was known as their Camberwell Carrot immediately.

What is catnip exactly?

I liked that. Might try and watch it with my cats. They liked Alvin and the chipmunks

I think the littler one's had too much. He's running around like crazy. And he was on top of the couch looking all weird

And it's not even him it's his brother that keeps asking for it
