Catnip is not useful for kittens. Cats under 3 months old are not sensitive to catnip and have basically no excitement reaction. Generally, it only works on cats over 6 months old and sexually mature cats. Owners can use catnip on cats over 6 months old. Sprinkling catnip into water or cat food can increase the cat's appetite. Catnip has a stimulating effect on cats, making them excited and running and jumping, which is beneficial to their health.

Drooling or meowing happily like drunkenness, and the excitement lasts about 5-15 minutes, and some can last as long as 1 hour.

2. Partial reaction type: The reaction is not so obvious and the excitement lasts relatively short.

3. Non-responsive type: Some cats have no reaction to catnip, such as kittens less than three months old, cats who are too nervous, and cats who are naturally not interested in catnip. s cat.
