I am so stoned and watching the x-files so I decided that I wanted my cats to get stoned too, so I popped open the bag of catnip, and it sort of fell everywhere, A LOT of it. Then I did a whippit as I watched my cats roll around in the catnip. WEll, now, theyre totally dazed and zonked out, it's very funny but I've never seen them so drugged up before. They look like they're enjoying it but just checking to make sure that too much catnip isn't a cat-killer.

no catnip is just fine....they will utilize as needed for pleasure ...a very good herb for cats as well as produces a natural aphrodesiac similar to what i herd female cats put out while in heat but for some reason female cats are attracted to it as well ....sometimes i think this means something about cats...

i wonder what the exact chemical compound is that gives cats such pleasure.
not that i've ever tried it, but i further wonder why humans don't get anything out of it at all...

A Study of the Essential Oil from Nepeta cataria ... Essential oils contain chemicals known as terpenoids. These chemicals are known be excellent natural insect repellants and antimicrobial agents. Microscopic images of catnip tissue ...i found this excerpt and this site that might be interesting to start with http://www.catsincharge.co.uk/catmint/index.shtml

I love catnip. My brother had a cat named Taia who was a total niphead. She would roll around in the stuff, and get all stoned and happy.
-------------------- Here's part of a poem!! I looked into my palm and saw what we had feared the most The mouse had gnawed into the frond while they had sought the GHOST The blender's better blunder blurred the butter's bluish hue My sugar cube exploded, tiny shrapnel blinded YOU! Don't panic! There's more. Just ask!

by the same token, i have heard that while LSD has been proven to cause respiratory failure in animals in very high doses, [upwards of ten thousand hits] they do not cause any hallucinatory effects in common household animals. [dogs, cats, rabbits]
this is all hearsay, though... any of you know anything about this?

I don't know about cats and rabbits, but I've seen a dog that's been given acid before. It DEFINITELY effected him, and not in a good way, either...
