Catnip....  

While doing research for a story (yes believe it or not I do research for Porn stories)  I was looking for how felines might react to smoked Catnip.   I think judging by what I've learned my plans for using it in my up coming story are with in the bounds of reality.   Also learning that it has effect on other species besides cats also will help the story.


Now it's that second part that interests me.  Catnip effects other species.   I've known that some what but I've learn that it's a mild sedative and can be good good for stomach aches if brewed into a tea.  I've also read that if smoked it has no real side effects and works to relax you, pluss I've read it's a mellower smoke then tobacco or err other green herbs.  there is some loss of reaction time but the effect lasts maybe 2 hours with no hang over.   I'll admit this intrigues me.   Since I don't know how to roll a joint, and I'd be too embarrassed to ask my mom to make me a catnip one.  I think I'm going to try it in a pipe.   (I always liked pipes)  I have read it can effect some people differently others like it effects some cats differently then others,  but if it works it may be a cheap ad pleasant way to relax after the hell that is work in a call center.   I intended to try its all ways, brewing it in tea (and if I ever get around to it I wonder how a cat nip beer would be) eating it and smoking it.  right now it'll just be an experiment.  I don't smoke anything, and I drink maybe one or two beers a month so I don't think this is too wacky.

anyway what do you think?

PS... If smoking works out I might try to talk my folks into at least cutting there, green herbs, with it  to save them some money there smoke isn't cheap and well a pricy cat nip is more cost effective

PPS... I don't care if it's doctors orders going to bed with sandwich bags duct taped to your feet feels weird

Admittedly I couldn't help but notice the effects of effecting effects in this journal...

=P

But interesting to know it works on others... Pipe would work I guess; but not sure how dry it should be to be smoked... Can make a difference in Tobacco and cloves... So why not catnip?

Might require more interesting google searches =P

Sorry that's the effects of me taking my antidepressants lat with a beer and typing after midnight.

I've been planning to grow some catnip myself for a while for my kitty anyway.  LOL and it was those Google searches that got me here

hehe, I know how it goes. Late night typing can be hard enough.... add to it and wheeeeeeee =P

You should grow catnip if you've got a kitty... if for nothing else; the possible Youtube glory from the hilarious things it will do.

Oddly while he likes catnip it doesn't really seem to have any effect on him.   He's got this little odd ball toy that is literally made of catnip.  It feels like balsa wood but it's catnip compressed under extreme pressure into a solid ball.  He loves it and plays, picks, and rubs it but other then that he doesn't seem affected.   Maybe it's cause at 19 he's an old pro at nip,  he also doesn't like people seeing him play.   The moment he notices you watching him with a toy he walks off

As for the Sandwich bags... Wouldn't Saran Wrap work just as well without some of the odd gaps or sticking out parts? Plus it sticks to itself so you could make a sort of sock out of it

With saran wrap I'd be worried about the lotion working into it and unraveling the sock.   The bags work well and I'm lazy enough not to want to double wrap my feet

What's the lotion for; if I might ask?

It's peculiar enough of a concept to get me curious heh

My feet dry out a crack quite painfully in winter.  Mainly cause oh the dry air.  I used to cut off the built up skin but I was told not to do that.  Though the little saw on my swiss army knife was perfect for it.   So my doc told me to sleep with medicated lotion on my feet.   He recommended the sandwich bags... I added the duct tape to keep them on.

I've had catnip tea. It's... ok. I didn't notice any effects.

It varies from cat to cat, though generally they follow the same effects.

But for Chance, it makes his clothes fall off, and makes him whorey-ish whenever he isn't. If he's being all shy, and won't let those pants drop, give him some catnip.

maybe with shake, otherwise i don't think it would be wise to mix.
