There is another similar cat-drug called "silverline" or something that cats without catnip genes can still get high on. My sister's cat likes it but not a ton (he doesn't get high on catnip)

Thanks! Our cat doesnt react to catnip at all and I had never heard of silvervine.

Our cat doesn't respond to catnip but she does respond to silvervine!

I don't think it's the classic catnip response (which I assume is because of her genes) but she gets more playful and her pupils enlarge... for a few minutes and then she just wants to take a nap 😂
