When I was a kid I grew a catnip bush. It seeded everywhere and started sprouting out of the lawn, in all the gardens, couldn't get rid of it! Hahaha. There was one bit in particular that grew massive, the giant, shrubby bit of it started hanging over the small retaining wall of the planter box it was in making a little 'fort' out of catnip - My cat would just climb in there and roll around for hours =/ She'd even bite off heaps of leaves and take them to random places, chew them up, bat them around, roll in them, run away, run back again, start eating them again, jump around like a crazy thing, it was hilarious.
Once I picked a whole heap of catnip leaves and dried them out to make a little catnip toy out of a handkerchief for the cat. I'm in my room sewing the dried catnip into the toy when my mum yells out to me from the kitchen, she startled me a bit so I jumped, accidentally dropping the dried, crushed catnip everywhere. My mum comes into my room and I'm sitting there looking all guilty because I've just made a huge mess with this plant on the carpet, my mum gets this weird look and drops to her knees, starts picking up all the catnip super quickly, smelling it (like really smelling it, damn near snorting it. So weird). Then I realise she thinks she's caught me with weed which made me crack up laughing, which kind of spurred her on xD Hahaha. Funniest shit man.
Anyway... That's all I got about catnip, hahaha.
