Product Description: Nepeta cataria is a short-lived perennial, herbaceous plant that can attain a size of 3 feet in height and 3 feet wide. The coarse-toothed leaves are triangular to elliptical in shape and the small, bilabiate flowers are showy and fragrant, and are either pink in colour or white with fine spots of pale purple. It blooms from late-spring to the autumn. It is also a herb of the mint family. Catnip essential oil contains mostly Nepetalactone, but also citral, geraniol, citronellol, nerol, thymol and limonene, is extracted by steam distillation.

About one cat in two inherits a sensitivity to the herb. Common behaviors cats display when they sense the bruised leaves or stems of catnip are rubbing on the plant, rolling on the ground, pawing at it, licking it, and chewing it. Consuming much of the plant is followed by drooling, sleepiness, anxiety, leaping about and purring.
