Is catnip a psychedelic to cats

So I started wondering tonight when I got my cats stoned off their gourds on catnip. Does catnip have psychedelic-like effects for cats?
By their behavior it seems like it does. First they start sniffing and eating it, and within a few minutes they are rolling around, flip-flopping, staring at their paws and they loose their balance. After those effects wear off (The come up) they then space out and just gaze into empty space and their movements appear awkward. I went to pick up my one cat and he felt more limp than usual as if his muscles are totally relaxed.
To me this looks like a fairly intense trip with a sedative like plateau. Makes me wonder about how exactly the stuff effects our feline friends.
Like their pupils don't dilate or constrict or anything, but it seems like a trip to me.

I have heard stories of friends da cats eating tons of catnip and acting pretty crazy.
Hard to say if it is psychedelic or not but it could be possible

Not minding that time's passing by I've got all and more, My smile, just as before. Is all that I carry with me I talk to myself, I need nobody else. I'm lost and I'm mine, yes I'm free

Lol. I think it would be pretty cool to trip with a cat on catnip some day. Like me dose shrooms and I feed my cat the 'nip while I'm tripping and we can just like chill.
Like, already cats are trippy enough on shrooms, they can totally pick up on it and they give off good trippy vibes as if they are tripping themselves. I just wonder how that vibe would change if they are high too.

You have a cat avatar, and cat sig, and you don't know if catnip makes cats trip balls.
You're not Canadian Jesus, I thought I knew you better, I don't know who you are anymore.
Seriously though, cat pupils seem to dilate when screwing with "the nip", so I vote yes.

Hahaha. I know that cats get high as shit off the 'nip. I was just wondering if it's legitimately psychedelic. I think it is by the way that they act.
I've always treated it like a psych and I only dose them once or twice a month maximum. I have noticed in the past that they do develop a tolerance to it and don't get as silly if they get it all the time.
I didn't notice the pupil dilation before because cat's pupils are always hella dilated in the dark.

Valerian root also works great on cats and that IS a sedative. Often cheaper than catnip too and we can get high with them, by brewing it as a tea.
Put i8t in an airtight jar (such as a water bottle) to prevent your whole house reeking of valerian.

Your cat would have to keep eating the cat nip cause im pretty sure its only like a 15-20 minute high for them

I've always heard that catnip to cats is like heroin to humans.
