My mom made some hand-crocheted catnip mice and catnip hearts to send to friends for the holidays. I helped her make sure the catnip was fresh by sampling it myself! I stuck my nose into the little bag and got it covered with catnip particles. After rolling on the floor and grunting ecstatically for a while, I then stuck my nose into the little pile of toys she'd completed. I had a mind to oversee personally the quality control inspection of every single catnip toy in the pile. She was so overcome with emotion she awarded me my very own catnip heart. She then immediately took all the other toys she'd made and wrapped them up in shiny paper. I never saw anyone wrap presents and put them in mailing envelopes so fast! She and my dad even took them to the post office right away! They said I was a wonderful incentive to getting the toys finished and in the mail. I'm nothing if not helpful. And in the meantime, I have my own little heart to play with.
I wish I could figure out where she keeps the catnip, though. I need to make sure it's always fresh, you know (*ahem*).
