A third of cats don't react to catnip!
Why do so many cats not like catnip?
- The ability to react to catnip has a genetic component.
- If cats do not inherit that gene to take in catnip, it does nothing for them.
- Of the third of cats that don't react, majority are females.
What Makes Our Catnip Different?
It's more than catnip...
...we blend in valerian root!
Valerian root elicits a similar effect, but it is stronger and longer lasting.
Cats that do not respond to catnip, tend to react to valerian root. This is because it doesn't require a genetic component to react.
Freshness Kitty Can Smell
- Organic and non-GMO catnip and valerian root are used
- Locally grown just north of our home in Washington State

Potent Farming Practices
The farms that grown our herbs, allow their plants to reach full maturity before harvested, making their herbs more potent than other companies.
Great for Picky Kitties
