Advantages: They love it

Disadvantages: Can make the hyper cats want to wake up the relaxed cats

How do I describe this without getting into trouble??? Catnip is a powder for cats, that sends them completely crazy. I never believed it when my partner first explained it to me..that was until I saw it. You only need to open the packet for the cats to smell it, the nose starts sniffing and then they start meowing like mad, walking round and round your legs, scratching whatever they can.

Then you put it onthe floor, cat bed or wherever, they will roll in it, lick it, suck it, claw it. They can then go two ways, they either settle down and get sleepy with it enjoy the smell and the taste or they can go like a hyperactive child who's eaten too many sweeties, running round the house, jumping on everything and everywhere, they will play with anything too which is great for the older cat.

I have 6 cats. 4 of them go really hyper and the other 2 settle down to relax. This can cause slight problems when the hyper bunch decide they will jump on top of the one's relaxing. It is funny to watch them going crazy and then they sleep for the rest of the night.

Ok so back to catnip. It comes in various forms; powder, grass, bubbles, drops. For 100g of catnip drops it will cost you about £1.35 from pet shops, these make good treats for them. For 20g of catnip powder (as picture shows) will cost you about £2 but will last a lot longer, to get your cats really wild you would be best buying this form of catnip. Great fun for even old cats

Summary: They love it, makes older cats act like kittens again
