I was just roaming around the garden as I do every day, Checking out the flowers and veggies for bugs and weeds. Wha..what the..mom had taken the chicken wire off from around the nip. I couldn’t believe my eyes!! Wowzeh..has the nip grown or what! Remember what size it was in the house.</a
There is a bunch of chick hen wire covering the good fresh catnip….guess that's why it stays good.

This nip was awesome! Nice big fresh leaves. Mortimer stopped by for a whiff or two.
Mom surprises us and takes the chick hen wire off when we least expect it and leaves it for us all afternoon.
The catnip when it was time for the chick hen wire. The nip has seen better days but it was so good!
You finally got some nip! Yeah!!!

Hi Roxy and Tigerlino, we all like a wee bit of the nip on occasion. However, I have seen some cats go weird on the nip and hide their faces. That’s obviously not us. hahaha

Your Mom had a great idea to protect the nip with chicken wire until it’s ready to “harvest” (eat!!!). Nice looking nip too I might say.

It sure worked Sammy. I’ve seen Kali trying to poke her paws through the chick hen wire and finally deciding to just sniff it instead. Of course, I don’t do those things. hahaha
