  10. Thought I'd give my kitties a treat, so I brought home a box of catnip/plastic
  11. catnip ball.  Now, we've had catnip toys before, but never the uncut stuff.
  12. My cats went BONKERS.  They seem OK now, but for a few minutes I was really
  13. worried about the older one, who's a strong and high-strung 13.  I took the
  14. 'nip away, scared by the manic reaction.  Don't know whether to give it back.
  15. Anybody know of danger in older cats of overstimulation thru catnip?
