    Catnip works on dogs as well FYI. For dogs, it’s sort of a sedative. It makes them calm and relaxed.

    It doesn’t work for all dogs, but if you have an anxious dog, it’s worth trying before things like vet trips because it’s safe in moderation.

      Catnip is also my secret ingredient in mojitos. It has a mellower flavor that compliments the mint well, and the moderate sedative effects of catnip tea make the rum more effective.

        It’s actually in the mint family, so that makes sense.

      Ooh. I might have to try this out. My pup Sophie has major social anxiety, never expected catnip to possibly help.
