They're all grown up—it's time to start treating, and feeding, them that way. Just because they're older, however, doesn't mean they're completely self-sufficient. Adult cats have nutritional needs particular to their life stage just as kittens and senior cats do, and they need your help to meet them. The CatChow.com Adult Care Center will clue you in on what you need to know.

Catnip: Its Versatility May Surprise You

I know what catnip is, but what is catmint?

My 14-year-old cat used to love catnip but lately when I put it down for her she just smells it and walks away. Do cat loose their interest for catnip as they get older or is something wrong with her?

All four of my cats eat catnip, which we pick fresh for them in our yard. No chemicals are used on our property, so is there any danger in allowing them to ingest the catnip?

Besides catnip, what other herbs do cats enjoy?

I am at my wits end. I have been trying to find out what CATNIP is made of, the INGREDIENTS. I realize it is a plant and it can be grown in your own home. What I am trying to find out is - is it part of the parsley family, dill family, or part of a flower family. Does it consist of different ingredients (different plants)?

I discovered, by accident, that one of my male cats LOVES curry. If I sprinkle a tiny amount (he now has his own "curry rug") he just goes wild. He will roll in it and paw it and he just has one heck of a good time (and so do I watching him). Why curry? And can that be bad for him?
