Catnip For Cats?

[steveromagnino]

I am told that Catnip is like a nice little hit of something for a cat, and makes them enjoy life, and possibly even enjoy tribal house music.

Has anyone seen this on sale anywhere in Thailand?

For Catnip, im not sure where you can buy, but i guess u can find it in big petshop around Suk.

By the way , you can find other and using compensate catnip

It 's Tum Yae Maew/ตำแยแมว/ Acalypha indica Linn.

cat's are crazy about this plant ,especially at root

I dropped myself at the petshop" manoon" near my apartment

there are 2 types of catnip from Hartz , 150 baht/package

1 dried catnip

2 dried catnip filled in a mouse doll

so i think u can find it in many petchop even JJ market

PS. "Tum Yae Maew/ตำแยแมว/ Acalypha indica Linn." that i mentioned before, it is "unwanted weed" u can find in a garden somewhere, it works both fresh and dried.

Hi Bambina,

Do you know if this plant is available at garden shops? I've never seen the packaged products here in Phuket. I could grow it my garden.

My 7 month old black Thai cat is just crazy, would it calm her down any? And do you feed it or let them just play with it?

Sorry lots of questions

cat just likes it bite ,rub and roll .. and get "so high" some people call it "ganja meaw" (marijuanna for cat )

Thanks for that, I'd never heard of it despite being here 10 years I trust I'm to read 'Unwanted plant' as 'weed'

thanks mahk mahk leuy na.

Where is this pet store near your apartment?! I will come to buy, as I cannot tell the difference between weeds ;_)

I want to see what will happen; I tried to make her drink whisky with me, but she doesn't like it...so maybe try this instead.

My dog used to like drinking beer with me, makes me feel better to see them have fun at the same time laaa.

Where is this pet store near your apartment?! I will come to buy

the pet shop called "Manoon Petshop" on Chaeng waatthana Rd. opposite "The Avenue" -"Tesco "
