A look at how catnip affects cats large and small
While stoners light up to celebrate 420, cats have an herb they crave: catnip! Although the Weed with Roots in Heck is famous for making cats frisky, it can also mellow them out. Internet celebrikitties Cole and Marmalade take an in-depth look at catnip’s chemical effects.
But it isn’t just kitties who love the ‘nip — big cats love it, too. In this classic video from Big Cat Rescue, tigers, cheetahs and other big kittens get baked. (thanks to Elaine W.)
I sent in the big cat video just today. Guess it won’t run. ?
The late Mookie and Mazzilli were among those cats who were unmoved by the ’nip. I wonder which way this little morsel will go?

That hight quality cute!
I wanted to huff all those kitty bellies–even on the big cats!
Cole and Marmalade are so funny.
Ah, catnip. For the dog people around here, I’m given to understand that the herb anise has a similar effect on dogs…
