I know some of you kitties aren’t turned on by catnip — in fact, researchers have estimated that somewhere between 10 and 20 percent of adult cats don’t care for nip. But have you ever met a cat who positively hated the stuff? This one does!

Ernesto, on the other hand, can’t get enough of the nip! He broke into the stash and got embarrassingly stoned… really embarrassingly stoned:

(Incidentally, I find this video far funnier than the “hilarious voiceover” in the annotation, so be forewarned.)

Ernesto is The Dude – he can nearly walk in a straight line after all that nip. Much respect. We need to practice his moves: the skid in the nip so you ‘tocks are covered is one we like loads.
Thanks for this Sparkle – we love our catinees! Have a good Sunday: do not allow your human to think she can make you work!
Go Ernesto….. oh my…. wayyyyyyyy too much catnip.
Cute videos…. thanks.
hugs, Max, Bugsy and Knuckles
Great videos. Love the kitty that didn’t like the nip. Some of us don’t give a rip about the nip. And that crazy Ernesto sure has a good time. Thanks for the smile this morning. Take care.
None of us really react to nip, but we do like matatabi (silvervine!).
Purrs,
The Chans
How could anycat refuse ‘nip?!? I am more like Ernesto.
Princess Tiff hated the nip; however BoBo is a nip junkie, much like Ernesto! Very cute post, guys!
MOL
Kitshka kind of reacted like the first kitty at the beginning but now she seems to be okay with it, although not excited by it. Which is good since I’m more like Ernesto 😉
Purrs to a great Sunday, Sparkle!
Interesting thing about catnip – there is a Celestial Seasonings tea for humans – it’s supposed to be a soothing blend and it has catnip in it! I always wondered why the kitties loved that box of teabags and I found out why when I read the ingredients! Silly kitties – Contrary humans.
I love those videos Sparkle! Sister Sascha doesn’t care for Nip but she doesn’t hate it!!!
Me lufs me some nip, too! I think a nip bath is wunnerful! Sissy doesn’t haf da gene…
that was hilarious! Wait til you see Cody tomorrow…he totally ruined a video for a give-away I am having 🙂
I love my nip and vine. But the Cat who came before was so-so about it. The one before er was almost not interested.
Hm. I wonder what happened with my avatar there. Oh well.
Have a great Sunday!
Well, I dont care for Nip all THAT much, but I dont hate it like that one kitty. And Marley and Iza are more like Ernesto! ~ AYLA
OMC!! Ernesto is a GAS!! The butt-flumps had Mommy in stitches.
We think Ernesto needs a nip intervention! MOL!
Hahameow! That’s funny. We all luv our nip. (sum of us more than others!)
The first video didn’t open for us but loved the second one!
Ernesto is one chillaxed kitty lol
Loved the EWWWWW look in the first video!!
I´m like the cat in the first video , just hate the stuff !
MOL! Ernesto was too funny! we are mostly “meh” when it comes to nip (silvervine too). Though Hollie loves a good nip-fest now and then. Thanks for sharing the movies, Sparkle!
Pip, Smidgen, Minnie, Hollie
LOL! Just say no…
Ernesto was funny. A floor covered in catnip and he was eating out of the container. What’s the matter, was the nip on the floor dirty? 🙂
LOL It’s actually up to 30% Yikes, our blogroll disappeared and we’re trying to catch up on comments.
WOW–I wish our human would pour the stuff all over the floor like that….
Noir
Whew–I’m glad you didn’t mind my phrase-pilfering!
When I was a baby cat, I gotted scared of Nip like that kitty did, but I like it okay now. I don’t get as crazypants as some, but I have a quiet good time.
That other kitty is HEE-LAIR-EE-US!! And you are soooooo right–it’s much funnier with no narration. I almost squirted milk out my nose when he was plomp=plomp=plomping his butt down in all those piles of Nip!!
Leo used to run from nip, but all the sudden, he loves it! I love love LOVE that second video! I’m laughing my buns off!
OMC! That top video was cruel but we loved the bottom one.
apparently Ernesto believes in the “he who has the most nip ON him wins” philosophy that The Crew has..
