Catnip can help reduce stress and calm anxious cats, especially during events like vet visits, travel, or moving to a new home.

The scent of catnip often triggers playful and energetic behavior, promoting physical activity and mental stimulation—important for both indoor and outdoor cats.

Sprinkling catnip on scratching posts or inside carriers can help encourage desired behaviors, such as scratching in appropriate places or getting comfortable with travel gear.
