Catnip, when eaten, can have a quieting effect on some cats, so it doesn't hurt them.

It's fine for them to eat.  I just sprinkle it on a scratch post or the carpet for them to eat and sniff at.

There's not much of my catnip plant left thanks to one crazy ginger! Its so much fun to watch her though. And afterwards, her eyes are wide and she sits staring at the wall...  :-:

Apparently humans can make a tea out of the leaves to aid indegeston or something? I have no intention of trying...

I sprinkle it on the floor for my girls, they go mad for it, rolling around and eating it.  Followed by a madder half hour than normal and then they crash for the night..........bliss an undisturbed night for me and hubby lol

Rosie loves eating catniip, you can tell where she has eaten it as there is always a soggy patch on the floor, her scratching post, the sofa - wherever she drags it off to!!!

Only two of our cats enjoy catnip, poor Lirael's nose doesn't work that well and she always looks confused when the other two are enjoying it.
