CatsPrecautions for using mint:

1. Control the dosage. The dosage of catnip should not be too much at one time. Feeding an amount the size of a fingernail is sufficient. Excessive dosage may cause discomfort to the cat's respiratory system.

2. Grasp the frequency. It is generally recommended that the frequency of use of catnip is 1-2 times a week. Continuous catnip stimulation will gradually reduce the cat's reaction level and develop tolerance.

3. Not suitable for the weak. Sick or weak cats need to rest. The stimulation of catnip will cause their nerves to become excited and consume their own energy.
