Why does a cat need catnip: who should think about buying the plant
24.05.2024 15:25
You can pamper your pet by buying him not only various treats, but also something special – catnip is perfect for this role.
The scent this plant gives off makes cats feel relaxed and happy.
But that's not all this mint is valued for: it can also be used as a preventative against helminths and also improves the condition of the cat's fur.
When you shouldn't give catnip
When an animal first comes into contact with a plant, the owner must carefully monitor the pet's condition.
So, if the cat is overly excited (this happens, although rarely), then catnip is contraindicated for it - bursts of strong emotions lead to rapid exhaustion of the animal. If, on the contrary, the pet has relaxed and behaves sluggishly, you can use this "treat" from time to time.
In what situations can catnip help?
The use of the plant is recommended in cases where the animal is experiencing stress - this often happens during a move, a visit to the vet, etc.
During your first walks around the city, you can also stock up on mint.
In addition, catnip is used when getting to know your pet, for training it, for accustoming the animal to its sleeping place, etc.
Previously, we talked about whether dogs can feel guilty or ashamed in front of their owner.
