How can I introduce catnip or cat grass to my cat?
Catnip provokes different responses in different cats. For some, it may encourage short bursts of activity, while others may become more relaxed. Cat grass contains natural fibre and is often selected by owners of cats that shed or groom frequently.
If you’re thinking of using catnip grass or cat grass, here’s a guide on how to do it:
- Start slowly: Not all cats react the same. Try sprinkling small amounts on cat toys or scratching posts and observe their behaviour.
- Mix and match: Some cats enjoy both catnip and cat grass, while others prefer one over the other.
- Benefit for indoor cats: Cat grass provides a safe outlet for cats that enjoy chewing greenery, helping deter interest in houseplants.
- How to store: Keep dried catnip in a sealed container to maintain freshness. Store cat grass seeds in a cool, dry place until use.
Tip: Overuse of catnip or cat grass may occasionally cause digestive upset or overexcitement. Offer in small amounts and monitor your cat’s reaction.
