@xical nah cats eat the catnip. and get high for however much they've eaten. it's basically weed for cats, iirc.
did a quick google, when eaten, catnip acts as a sedative for cats, so sorta like how alcohol makes humans sleepy?
and when smelled, cats go high. and since cats usually sniff something before eating it, they do get high from catnip. but it's perfectly healthy!
