    WOW that got nice and tall. I have it in my yard but it spreads out rather then get tall. My cat walks past the catnip and eats my herbs--silly cat.

    This is expensive at our local hardware store--bought some once and put in small cat toys. A friend said to keep it in freezer??-not sure on that though.

    My sister has 3 cats. She also has a LARGE mason jar with catnip in it, that she has had for MANY years. It is on the fireplace ledge where she sits to put on her outside shoes. Whenever she sits down there, the cats come running, hoping for catnip.Who knows how old it is?

    Awesome. I read somewhere that Catnip will help keep the deer away. They are not supposed to like it. Anybody know if this is so?

    We haven't had any issues with the squirrels eating the catnip. They sure love the big pine cones that fall off our Ponderosa pines.

    I have a close relative, catmint, and the neighborhood cats come and roll in it. It's quite tall if they'd let it stand up.
