Tonight was catnip night at our house. Our kitties absolutely love this cardboard scratcher we got for them. It’s a right triangle with corrugated cardboard on the long side, where the cats can dig their claws into the material. Underneath in the triangle part is a little disco ball, where the cats can stick their hands through the holes and knock the ball around.

The fun part is rubbing catnip into the corrugated cardboard. The cats go berserk, slobbering all over the cardboard and trying to eat the catnip.

Vincent had a go at it first. Here he is, approaching the funky smell with a bit of caution.

Once the ‘nip started taking effect, Vince was stupefied. He was eating the cardboard to get a good buzz going on…. Awww yeah, that’s the stuff…. Mama, on the other hand, is not amused. She’s a little camera shy.

Vince, surprisingly enough, didn’t get into it that much. We’re thinking he likes higher grade catnip– he’s been around.

Hot Dog sauntered in and had a go at the ‘nip. He completely lost it, slobbering and chewing, rubbing his chin all over the wet cardboard. We snapped picture after picture, but he was oblivious. Hot Dog is officially f*$&ed up.

Now Hot Dog’s eyes are rolled back in his head, but he can’t pull himself away. The cardboard is mushy where he’s drooling, but he tries to shove his face into the ‘nip anyway. He’s totally high.
