I, too, would like to know.  I just recently gave my two 11 week old kittens
some catnip.  They didn't like it (I had to trick them into eating it by mixing
it with tuna).  After they did eat it, they were only slightly more active than
normal.  Are there some cats that catnip won't affect?  Did their age have
anything to do with it?
