Scooter enjoying some catnip. Do your cats eat it too? All three of my cats will sit and eat it for a while before flopping down and rubbing it all over themselves and the floor.

Does it affect or otherwise attract mountain lions? I live in a mountain range that has a small but significant mountain lion presence, so while my cat would love to have some live catnip around and I'd love to have some more pollinators, I really don't need to increase the odds of a mountain lion hanging around.

maybe?

I’m far from an authority though. Your kitty’s vet might have a better answer

You can always pot them and keep them indoors, if it’s for house cats.
