The Faces of Nip

November 28, 2020 By: Summer Samba30 Comments

The faces of nip - what happens when a cat overindulges!

I looked in on my catnip garden on my most recent outing to the back patio. It’s an exceptionally good crop this year!

My human pinched off a few sprigs so I could make a closer examination.

It was most excellent. To put it mildly.

Actually, there was nothing mild about it!

In fact, I lost control of the nip for a few moments.

For a while there, it even seemed to have disappeared!

I even walked around looking for it. I don’t know why my human found this so funny.

I’m still not sure what just happened!

    Summer…I love seeing you having a great nippy time! Mom needs to get cracking and plant me some. There’s no excuse.

    Whoa! Do you have a license to grow that strong nip? Heh! I dunno if I’ve ever seen you like this. Ha ha, you really have a nip head! BTW, I know you don’t like to share but does your human know that catnip leaves are good for curing headaches and nausea? TW tried bringing catnip tea into the bedroom to sip on but quickly realized it was a bad idea. MOL!

    Our Mom thought it was funny when you couldn’t find it too. Humans are silly.

    Wow… that’s great nip. My mum is useless – she tried to grow some in a pot outdoors and it was fine last year but this year it just died.

    Nevermind, I’m not that crazy about catnip anyway!

    To think, that fresh nip is outside all day and all
    night – waiting for you to enjoy it. You are fortunate
    in so many ways.
