Why Cats Love Lavender (dried & in moderation!)

Every day your cats play, hunt, eat, groom, snuggles with you and sleeps! It's a lot of “work” for him or her, right?! LOL After your cat has put in a full day of bathing, lying in the sun, washing herself and playing with you, treat her to Meowijuana's Mice Dreams

Mice Dreams is an aromatic and healthful blend of catnip, passion flower and lavender. The lavender Meowijuana uses in Mice Dreams is only in dried flower form and is used in minimal amounts within our Meowijuana catnip blends for healthy effects.  

Why Cats Love Lavender (dried & in moderation!) 

The small amounts of dried lavender we put in our catnip blends help promote relaxation, reduce stress and anxiety and help your cat sleep more soundly (and that might help you sleep more soundly at night as well). 

You may have heard that lavender oil is toxic to cats; it can cause your cat to have an upset stomach. Meowijuana only uses dried flowers of its lavender. 

At Meowijuana we love kitties. We research all the ingredients in our catnip blends. Most of the catnip and other ingredients are grown in lush United States and Canadian soils.

As with anything you give your cat, use catnip in moderation for your cat to get the full effect. 

Note: Dried Lavender is not toxic for cats; the ASPCA suggests that nibbles of dried lavender are fine for cats. We suggest moderation in everything, including lavender.
