Cats can eat catnip directly. Catnip is available in powder form and leaf form, both of which can be eaten directly by cats. Catnip is a natural non-toxic plant, and because it contains "nepetalactone", it stimulates the nerves and produces excitement when cats smoke and eat it. It is not addictive and will not have any impact on the body. Mint is a plant mainly used in adult cats to relieve mood and increase excitement. After the cat eats it, it will cause temporary behavioral changes, such as sneezing, chewing, rubbing, rolling, etc., which can make the cat excited, run and jump, increase the cat's amount of exercise, and also increase the cat's appetite.

Precautions for feeding catnip to cats:

1. Do not feed milk cats. Cats should be fed after they are 8 months old.

2. Pay attention to the appropriate amount of feeding and do not overfeed.

3. If there are multiple cats at home, it is best to isolate them when feeding to prevent them from getting excited and fighting after feeding.

4. Do not give catnip to pregnant cats to prevent the cat from being too excited and running and jumping, leading to miscarriage.
