Probably diarrhea, but due to the amount, I would call poison control, just to be sure.

he ate the 3.5 oz. tub. He is doing well he is just glued at my side. He refuses to let me leave his presence and is ontop of me constantly.

I am glad that Moo is alright but you might want to suggest that your sweetie attend some Catnip Anonymous meetings.

Catnip Anonymous! Yeah that sounds like something moo needs! ANd its really funny because he's like a little pot head...he will eat the catnip...space out...then when it wears off he will eat an entire bowl of food (he gets the munchies) and then heads to me for some loving since he sulks around. ahh that must be the rebound effect.

Tilly doesn't really touch the stuff she gets effected by it....but it makes her paranoid...so she will litereally eat some then sit under the table with her eyes darting around for hours....

Is this stuff habit forming?

Catnip is not addicting...
it is in the mint family.

Both of my cats are not catnip sensitive...
apparently it's a genetic thing.
Some are...
some aren't.
