What Is Catnip?

Catnip, scientifically known as Nepeta cataria, is a perennial herb from the mint family. If your cat could garden, it would definitely be on their list of must-have herb plants!

While catnip is well-known for its euphoric effect on cats, it has many other appealing qualities that make it a great addition to gardens. These include its appearance, potential health benefits, and ability to attract pollinators. 

Catnip Appearance and Characteristics

Catnip typically grows to a height of 2-3 feet, with sturdy, square stems characteristic of mint plants. Its leaves are light green, soft, and covered with fine hairs, giving them a slightly fuzzy texture. 

The catnip plant's flowers are usually white or lavender and form in small clusters at the ends of the stems. These delicate blooms, as well as catnip's fragrant, heart-shaped leaves, not only add subtle beauty to gardens but, as mentioned, also attract beneficial insects and pollinators like bees and butterflies. 

Effects on Cats 

The substance in catnip plants that triggers reactions from cats is called "nepetalactone." It is non-toxic, and catnip is safe for your cats, even daily. However, too-frequent use of catnip can make cats desensitized to its effects. 

When exposed to catnip, cats typically behave by licking, rolling, drooling, and chasing. However, reactions to this herb may vary among cats, as a response to catnip is hereditary. Not all cats are affected, and it might not affect senior cats and kittens. 

Catnip Origins and History

Catnip is native to Europe and Asia but has become naturalized in North America, where it grows wild in many regions. Historically, catnip was valued for its medicinal properties long before it became famous for its effect on cats. It was used in Europe and Asia for centuries to treat various ailments, from digestive issues to respiratory conditions.

The name "catnip" likely originated in Middle English sometime around the 13th or 14th century. While the first part of the name references the plant's effect on cats ("cat"), experts disagree on the etymology of the second part ("nip"). Some say that "nip" could be derived from the Middle English word "nippen," meaning "to pinch suddenly" or "to bite suddenly," which is how cats typically interact with catnip. 

Regardless of its name's etymology, one thing is for sure: cats have loved this plant for centuries!

Catnip Plant Care: Growing Tips

Growing catnip is relatively easy, making it an excellent choice for novice and experienced gardeners. Here are some tips to help you cultivate a thriving catnip plant:

  • Soil and Location: Catnip prefers well-drained soil and a sunny location, though it can tolerate partial shade. Ensure the planting site has good air circulation to prevent fungal diseases.

  • Temperature:  Herbaceous perennial hardy in Zones 3 to 9

  • Watering:  Water daily until established in its new home; they become drought tolerant! Water the plants at the base to keep the leaves dry and reduce the risk of disease.

  • Planting: You can start catnip from seeds, cuttings, or transplants. If using seeds, sow them indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost date or directly in the garden after the danger of frost has passed. Space the plants about 18 inches apart to allow for proper growth.

  • Fertilizing: Catnip does not require heavy feeding. A light application of a balanced fertilizer or compost in the spring should suffice.

  • Pruning: Regular pruning encourages bushier growth and prevents the plant from becoming leggy. Cut back the stems after the first bloom to encourage a second flush of flowers.

  • Managing Spread: This plant can be invasive. Remove the flowers before they go to seed to prevent it from spreading.

Uses and Benefits of Catnip

Catnip is versatile and offers numerous benefits for cats, humans, and the garden itself.

  • For Cats: As mentioned, the most well-known use of catnip is as a stimulant for cats. You can use fresh or dried catnip to make toys or sprinkle it in your cat's play area.

  • For Humans: Catnip has been used in traditional medicine for its calming effects. A gentle antispasmodic and very mild sedative, it can be made into a tea to help with insomnia, anxiety, and digestive issues. Always consult with a healthcare provider before using catnip medicinally.

  • In the Garden: Catnip is an excellent companion plant. Its strong scent deters pests like aphids, squash bugs, and beetles, making it a natural pest repellent. Additionally, its flowers attract pollinators, which can help improve the yield of nearby fruit and vegetable plants, as well as beneficial insects like ladybugs, which prey on garden pests. 

  • Culinary Uses: While not a common culinary herb, catnip can also be used in the kitchen. Its leaves can be added to salads, soups, and stews for a minty flavor, though it's essential to use it sparingly due to its very strong taste.

  • Aesthetic Appeal: Beyond its practical uses, catnip is an attractive plant that adds beauty to any garden. It is also well-suited for growing indoors, providing a touch of greenery and feline entertainment all year round.

Soft comfortable very good pillow
Size: King (Pack of 1), Color: White
I really love my new pillow it's great and comfortable. Yes, it has a little smell, but if you wash the pillowcase and put the pillow on the window for a day you won't notice anything anymore.

Best place for head
Size: Queen (Pack of 1), Color: White
Do you love not getting sleep and sweating all over your pillow at night when you are asleep? If so then don't buy this pillow! If you want a good nights sleep and cool pillow like me this is the one. Ive always been ehh towards spending so much on a pillow but its 100% worth it, I sleep so much better and it forms to my head and keeps me cool at night. Great support even for my big head and comes with a bag of extra stuffing if you want to have a little more firmer pillow. Highly recommend

Oversized
Size: Queen (Pack of 2), Color: White
I have chronic neck pain. I am forever buying new pillows. Sometimes I think I found the perfect pillow but then three months later they’re losing their loft. I thought I would give these pillows to try since the stuffing is removable. Now these pillows are really oversized. To the point where I thought that they had sent me king-size pillows but I double checked the packaging and they were Queen. I ended up having to buy king-size pillowcases for them because they just barely fit in the queen size and the pillowcases would always end up pulling back from the edge. So that’s a negative one star there. Now I’ve been sleeping on these pillows for a while and they have held up well. I did end up removing some of the stuffing because it was just too much. I’m a side sleeper and when I use this pillow, it does a good job of keeping my neck in alignment. However, the pillow tends to migrate up as I sleep. Or I tend to slip down off the pillow, either or. So that’s why I’ve removed a second star. Maybe if I removed more stuffing that wouldn’t happen, but then I feel like the loft would be too little. I will say that these provide great support when sitting up in bed reading or watching TV. So would I buy them again? Probably not. Am I going to keep using them? Yes

Amazing - Stop Scrolling and Buy This Pillow
Size: Queen (Pack of 1), Color: White
I have been an Amazon customer ever since the very beginning, and this is my first review. Not because I haven’t purchased tons of amazing things (and a few bad ones), just never felt the need. However, I researched pillows for longer than I care to admit, and decided on this one. I’ve had it for about six months and absolutely love it. No lie, I genuinely look forward lying my big head on it after a long day. I am a side sleeper, but flip flop all around through the night and it’s great in every position. Pros: Stays nice and cool, which is soothing regardless of the time of year. Has a sort of quilted textured pattern on the zip up cover, gives it a luxury feel, that breaths nicely even when a pillow case is added. The fill is fully adjustable to your preference. I knew it came with extra filling but was worried it would not be enough. Wrong. It was very full and I ended up taking some out until it was perfect. It comes vacuum sealed and suggests it may take some time to fully take shape. However, I found it to be about 90% almost instantly and was sleeping on it a couple hours later. There was no unpleasant scent sometimes associated with memory foam items. The foam itself is very nice, a mix of what appears to be shredded and cotton candy cloud like. Very brilliant idea, as it is somehow supportive, soft and firm all at once. The affordability of this pillow compared to some of the others in this category can’t be overstated. Oh, and the packaging was very thoughtfully and securely done. If you are like me, an over thinker, I would suggest just taking this for a spin. It’s amazing. I’m not a bot, or working for the company. I’m just truly satisfied, love this pillow, and have been sleeping great.

It's the perfect pillow!
Size: Queen (Pack of 1), Color: White
I purchased this pillow specifically for its customizable fill feature, which allows you to add or remove stuffing to suit your personal comfort needs. Due to the unique curvature of my cervical spine—forward at the neck rather than backward—I require a soft, semi-flat pillow rather than one that is thick or firm. Additionally, I often experience ear discomfort by morning, so a gentler surface is essential. Upon adjusting the fill, I was pleasantly surprised by the generous amount of stuffing included. There was enough to fill an additional pillowcase, and I estimate it could easily create four to five more pillows. The ability to modify the pillow’s firmness at any time is an outstanding feature that makes it adaptable for a wide range of preferences and sleep styles. This pillow has exceeded my expectations in both comfort and versatility. I highly recommend it to anyone seeking a personalized sleep experience.
