Yesterday, I posted a pic of Nellie with her chin resting on her toy that we call Herr Rabbit.  (Pun intended)  Nellie never showed much interest in this toy.  That was until I started rubbing catnip leaves on it.  Now she loves him.

The other day, Pricilla’s publicist posted a pic of their cat, Sherpa.  He was contentedly enjoying being in what appeared to be a shopping sack.  The post went on to explain that it was a catnip scented sack.  How would Nellie react to something like that?  I had to find out.

I picked some catnip leaves.  I rubbed them all over the inside of a sack that had been in the coat closet.  Then with camera in hand, I watched.

Nellie sniffing the sack contents

She liked it.  Nellie is not the youngster that Sherpa is and that may be why she didn’t take up residence inside.  She did, however, manage to snag the catnip, pull it out and devour it.  What did you expect her to do?
