128 Times Cats Found Catnip, And Cat.exe Stopped Functioning
If you're a cat owner, having a small bag of green powder in your home means something very different from what most people would think. It's that magical dust that turns domestic felines into wild jungle cats as soon as they get a whiff of it, and melts them into a motionless puddle of fluff if they lick it up. Enter the wondrous world of catnip, and the stoned kitties who can't get enough of it.
The name 'catnip' is derived from nepeta cataria, an herb closely related to mint. The plant, whether freshly grown or dried for commercial purposes, secretes a chemical compound called nepetalactone that triggers a response from cats' pheromone receptors - in other words, it makes them lose their minds when they smell it. When the plant is ingested, it produces the opposite effect by sedating the cat. Each feline reacts differently to the magical herb, with some showing outright immunity to its powers. Others, however...
Check out a list of cats who went on a serious 'nip trip' below, and just wish that you were on their level of ecstasy right now.

Nice troll, ladies. Ever heard of a catio? Environmental enrichment? Taking care of feline mental health to reduce problem behaviours and stress? Well, I have - I'm a registered veterinary professional with extensive training and I'm employed and counseling people about the above things. Trolls be trolls - get your head out if your well-used keyboard and realize that the world is a LOT bigger than the little pieces you see online.

Does catnip really work? I give my cat some... And i think there is no effect for her... Or maybe i got a bad batch?
It only works for about 50% of cats, and some are more sensitive than others - some of these photos and gifs seem to show very sensitive cats. Freshness can matter, too.
Load More Replies...A lot of these are really funny, but always in these cat posts there are so many fat cats. That's animal cruelty, if you didn't know. Animals, just like humans, aren't supposed to be fat.
Apparently pet obesity has seen a sharp rise, along with people obesity :\.
Load More Replies...I don't want to ruin the laughter but why the hell do you give your cat drugs
Catnip is not harmful to cats, studies have shown they are safe for cats, the sedative or energy effect on them is not harmful to their health. Kinda like how we drink a cup of coffee to perk us up. Other plants can be harmful to cats, but catnip is not one of them.
Load More Replies...Catnip is safe for cats, it's virtually impossible for a cat to overdose on it.
Load More Replies...It's a drug. For cats. After all these photos, I started wondering, did someone dare to take such photo review with ppl on drugs.
My cat always gets super hyper on catnip. As in she runs headfirst into table legs...
No not really. Studies show that a cat can eat a large amount of it without toxic effects. It's very difficult for a cat to overdose on it, so it's pretty safe for cats.
Load More Replies...My cats get all sexy wen they play with a certain catnip cuddle toy! It's quite unsettling!
I came home one night to find a ripped open bag of Nip and both of them rolling in it so had to shame them! https://imgur.com/a/mANW2
I have given a pinch of catnip to several different cats and none of them have behaved like these cats. It has proved soothing to nervous cats and mildly enjoyable to others. Certainly none of them have appeared to be drugged
WTF! why do they do that for? not because they like drugs means their cats enjoy to get high. That's animal cruelty
LOL too funny, but Gizzy, Thori and Sisi, da second hand kittehz prefer toys with valerian inside, from that they get high, but if I give them catnip toys they only lick on them, then leave them on the floor and walk away, without any effects "hitting in", but the nippy toys´re totally soaked with their saliva then hahahaha!!! 😹😹😹
Catnip doesn't have the effects you think it does. And those are just some usual cat pictures. Boring post.
I've never come across loose catnip but my cat loved his rabbit-fur mice stuffed with it. No mess, no stones...
Don't understand this at all. My cats don't give a fig about catnip. Fresh, ground up, etc. they are not interested.
my cat just murders everything in sight whenever he has catnip, to the point where I actually got an infected scratch and had to treat it
I'm not so sure it's such a good idea to catnip your cat to the point of being stupid high. As with people, it might be funny for awhile until your doctor tells you all about dialysis.
Is it me or are a lot of these kitties a little on the chunky side?? Catnip blows my mind, we don't have it in Oz. So weird to get ur pet hi
Oh wooh. Correction. We do have it. I need to get myself a kitty, hilarity will ensue!!
