Mim, as I understand it, some cats lack the ability to respond to catnip; thankfully - that can't be said of any of ours. The thing about catnip is - if you have cats who love it - you can scarcely grow it, as they're bound to find a way to the herb. And if you can grow catnip, well ---- you obviously have no cats. Years ago (without thinking) I had it planted in a flower/herb bed out front. Felines from all around came to our yard to roll in, rub against, and eat the catnip. While they were visiting, they turned my flower beds into their litter boxes. I am surprised that the SPCA didn't have me hauled before the magistrate on drug charges --- our yard perpetually looked like 3:00 am at the Kit Kat Club --- stoned felines under every shrub, atop the bench and yowling at the front door, for sustenance. Apparently, nip gives them the munchies, once the foolishness wears off. Who knew?
