Catnip Craze: The Feline’s Wild Wooing Weed

Ah, catnip! Nature’s quirky gift that turns a poised kitty into a playful, purring puddle. Catnip contains a compound called nepetalactone. When our feline friends catch a whiff, it binds to their nasal receptors and sends their kitty brains into overdrive. The result? Somersaulting cats and comedic chases!
But here’s a plot twist; around 30% of cats are completely immune to catnip, shrugging off its effects due to their genetics. And kittens? Most don’t react until they’re older. When you sprinkle catnip and see your cat take a euphoric trip, they’re just having a wild, whisker-twitching party, all thanks to a humble herb!
