Over the years I have had a lot of cats. Some went nuts over it and the others would ignore it. One cat would roll all over it in the garden so it was always flattened. Maxx just eats it when I bring it in. The rest ignore it. Weird. 😻 @gjones

Bruce is one of the few cats that could care less about catnip.

Cats are funny. I have had a lot of cats over the years and only half of them loved catnip. 🤷‍♀️ @lesliecole49

I had catnip last year but just noticed it's gone! Not sure if one of the cats ate it to bits or if it didn't survive the winter.

It should hold him for a while. 🤣 They grow and spread so much in the garden. Mine was accidentally pulled out last year. 🤔🙀 @kez001uk

@hkyfvr vigorous catnip eating uprooted it? 😅

Of course, with a little help from hubby. 🤣 We helped a Robin build a nest today. She was trying so hard to start one on our spotlights outside our back door. The nest materials were just slipping to the ground. She tried again and again so I found a small basket and George secured it to the lights. He even put all her nesting stuff in it. She loves it and is redecorating now. She is way out of reach of the cats and they will be dive bombed if they try anything. 🙀😍 @kez001uk

I've been unwell for a few months but finally starting to see some improvement. Still not quite able to do any gardening.

Only Maxx and Abby. The other two do not even react to it. Weird. 😻😻 @crabby58

That is weird🤪years ago I had a kitty, named Snickers and when I would rub on a muscle relief cream, Snickers would go nuts..he loved the smell, I guess. They have such personalities😻

I once heard that 1 in 3 cats on average aren't attracted to it, whereas the other 2 go crazy for it!

Funny. My one cat has a constant stuffy nose so she has an excuse. One of mine eats it and the other rolls in it. 😹 @jeatacqke
